BeautyScope 178: Fluffy white balls


perfect little snowballs
decorate the spine of a leaf
...precursor of death?

Poem - Aussie Landscape


A change of pace.
Here is a poem I wrote when we returned to Australia after living in New Zealand. 
I saw the Australian landscape with new eyes.

brown rusty paddocks
lines of red steel 
contour the ground

gold dusty stubble
trees latch onto 
the old dry land

cows graze on rubble
a jagged river 
hacks time into the earth.

'Til next time, keep creating!
Love,
Jazzy Jack

BeautyScope 175: Blue vase


feeling blue
I turn to you
a vortex of aqua
bubbly inclusions
coloured in gold
light bounces through 
leaves stained glass 
shadows on my table

your smooth cold surface
cools my heated face
while I stare in your depths
leaving the world behind
floating in my mind
amongst your watery hues
playing catch with golden bubbles
...and giggling too
