Newton
every stall splashes its best
on the wall
...

Bintulu Esplanade
the kemena river meets
the sea and anglers
...

Snake River
we twist and turn
to its slithers
...

Batam Beach View Resort
holding up the sky
the bull horn chalets
...

over the Table Mountain
a feast for Cape Town
adventures
...

glittering like a jewel
in the evening skyline
Hasanuddin Airport
...

Seychelles fishing
my first fish dances
in the north west wind
...

Costa Rica
my heart plunges
into its wild side
...

our family has been abuzz
with dog tales ever since we were kids
there was a dog our grandparents owned
which swam the river back
...

Naples Fishing Pier
in the roar of the sea
the whistles of dolphins
...
