Fiery Little Flowers

Lantana blossoms, Southern California

Fiery little flowers
Blazing mid the green,
Not a thing about you
Could be called routine!

Ruby Gate

Backyard gate, Phoenix, Arizona

A lock on the gate
And one on the door
Make sure that the thief
Will pilfer no more!

Poisonous Ruby Leaf

Poison oak leaf, Southern California

Little leaf of poison,
Lurking in the shade,
Rubbing you the wrong way—
Worst mistake I've made!

Trunk

 

An early Sunday morning view of the outdoor dining area of the enchanting Trunk restaurant in Melbourne.

The building was originally built in 1859 as a synagogue.

It then became a state school until 1892 and then became a child care facility for this slum and poor area of Melbourne.

Now that fabric has disappeared, and the premises has been operating as a restaurant since 1980.

And the food is brilliant!

meandering space

many odd shapes and profiles

many old secrets

Little gems of red,
Queens would gladly wear you—

On the Move???

A couple of weeks ago, I wandered an inner suburb of Melbourne called Moorabbin.
I found this outside the Kingston Arts Centre on the main road through Moorabbin.
I wasn't sure if this was a temporary or permanent arrangement.
It just seemed quite odd, supported by two pot plants.

like a stray painting
waiting for identity
a place in the world

Stray silk flower, Southern Arizona

Desert Rubies

Cholla cactus, Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, Southern California

Cactus Maiden, sharp of thorn,
How I wish that you were shorn
Of each deadly barb and lance—
Then I’d ask you out to dance!

Covered Wagon

Covered wagon camped for the night, Southern Arizona

He’s stopped for the night,
The wagon’s at rest;
The mules are tethered,
Their hay passed the test;
When the sun rises,
He’ll be on the road
Heading on westward—
Adventure’s his mode!

Retired Sofa

Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona

Throw out the sofa, toss out the chairs;
No one remembers, nobody cares
About the good times shared round the fire—
Even a sofa has to retire!

Wheels on Fire

A rather arty vehicle spotted in the main street of Hastings on the Mornington Peninsula.
A small clue seems to be in the number plate.


A highway rebel
Flaunts a wild kind of vision
Drama on a roll

Queen of Tarts

Queen of Tarts, Dublin, Ireland

The Queen of Tarts,
She won our hearts
With cookies, pies and cake.
The Knave of Tarts,
Did slay our hearts,
And tossed them in the lake!

Secret Bold Red Sign

Food on the Hill is a quaint little shop at Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula.
It breaks most marketing rules - tucked away at the back of a very small village shopping centre.
(The entrance is the door near the plant on the left!)
And yet, people find it and it's popular!

I may seem simple
But I cater for lone souls
I am your secret

If I Were a Seagull

The River Liffey, Dublin, Ireland

If I were a seagull
Where the Liffey flows,
I would seek a nesting place
Red as any rose;

Signs across the river,
One of them will do—
There I’ll find a resting place,
There I’ll hide from you!
