planting moon
the mountain’s own names
for its flowers
swelling inside the bud wing colours

in its own tongue

three tiny bones
in my inner ear
meadow lark
time flows
around a heron
frost-tipped reeds
coastal cottage

skinny dipping
in the outback river
paperbark trees
fly fishing
the sudden flick of
a frog’s tongue
my mother asks
if I am her sister . . .
entry to the maze
my daughter’s grave …
shadows of flowers dance
by my side
domestic fight
a young child hiding
in the fairy garden
