been meaning to call her all day
how much are thoughts worth

Ian Row

my mother's as well
I called her first thing today
she was pleased I did

Sun, then cold showers.
Melting hot, wind and then rain.
Melbourne in the Spring.

Gray geese just standing
around honking and talking
cold November rains

Predictive function: Curiosities

'elect' is 'eject'
'zeal' is 'weak', 'jazz' is 'lazy'
'us' turns to 'versus'

the real question is,
can you have too much mango?
asked the apricot

This morning's new gift
from the ornamental pear

Irrepressible
weeds burrow in from next door
the crippled neighbour

much needed rain
gardens, veggie patches, crops
the car gets a bath

She's cooking tonight
Therapy as much as treat
Channeling mother

Ian Row

I don't believe you
I think YOU yelled at her first
Oh please you've got form

The wrong side of bed
Proof you can rewrite your day
The right kind of love

Make up your damn mind
Sometimes in life you shift gears
But your clutch smells burnt

His tattooed sleeves
tell a story that's remotely

So desperate for love.
Any man would do, could do
Come undone she did

Intimate moment
between athlete and medic
gentle hands on face

Alison Lester

Like good intentions
still sweet, but dropped and broken
Honey on the ground

Hmm you look different
You shaved? New top? What is it?
OMG you're fat.

Mid arvo coffee
Ruined by speeding bogan
Magma and mag wheels

Menacing grey clouds.
Blink! An otter on its back.
The clouds touch their toes.

He walked the block each
night.. coveting all the homes
grander then his own

Tuesday to myself
Thank you to all the horses
Possibilities

When I'm not with you
I am someone else, someone
you've not met before

Arm wrestling with weeds
Wiser to the ways of thorns
Fallible weed mats

Calendar haiku: November

Coveted by all,
Turning into such beauty -
The falling red leaves
