Otway ash
Erect mountain pole
Topped and cosied by
a crocheted limey hat.
A seemingly screaming rip from
high
An eeling strip of bark headlong
tail trailing
falls …..
silence waits
It snags, now
drapes
Otway tree is
off the shoulder trimmed by a peasant shawl
Otway ash
Majestic mountain pole
Aquaduct rooted
is to all seasons enthralled.
A puddled path twists past.
Fluoro scare-signs
alert humans to CATASTROPHE!
Snakes leap, stick figures trip
off cliffs
and falling rocks smash heads
Otway pole
Tea cosied
Shawl wrapped
is home to Powerful Owls.
Archaic nature has made scenery
Shy mushrooms suckle
a lichen padded branch
Sneaky crevices surrender to a
shifty shard of light.
These shoes leak
A fern frond shivers,
drips
expires a mouldy sigh
Erect ash pole
is inured to time and reason
in a place where
person presence is pointlessly
prosaic
The forest is still,
unadorned
and
no sounds exist but for ears.
