Dawn lights the lake
Boats float with reflections
Of autumn balloons

Dawn lights the lake
Boats float with reflections
Of autumn balloons
Your laugh emerges
Often when Iβm serious
A light reminder

Parrot paradise
Where the forest meets the sea
And sands signal change
βοΈ + πΈ by Po
Small, feathered and masked
Alert⦠darting through foliage
A brave flash of red

Shy and elusive
Yet such a fancy outfit
A jewelled treasure
βοΈ+π¨ by Lisa
A white feathered friend
Has a lot of news to share
Busy beak; sharp screech

Chilly evening
Birdsong lullaby
The sun falls asleep
Tiny yellow leaves
Flutter inevitably
No wait! They're weebills!

Iβm a weebill I'm
a weebill I'm a weebill
Squeaks the proud weebill
The spotted tail quoll
Once widespread on the mainland.
But they will be back...

the sun impersonates
the full moon
