Origins

If ever an original thought 
Possessed fair and true
Surely it would be one time
I fell in love with you
Pimelea glauca, Smooth Riceflower, Seven Mile beach Tasmania
Sheer freedom to spend
Hastily penned prose
As a lottery win
Tossed to the wind

Not a single note
To be found now
All love expended
Where to now?
Coal river, Tasmania

One fine day

A bundle of spring flowers 
Tied loosely with a curl
Of twine enveloped
By eucalypt sprigs
Like a peace offering
Lay at my feet
All sorts of smiles
Glances and reminisces
Scents hang around
Should you find
Alone turns lonely
Unexpectedly so
At the eleventh hour
Though not clock watching
Thoughts chime in chorus
The need to know
All is fine
Epacris impressa
