Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme set by @alan678.bsky.social is #SilentPresence. Capturing moments where a bird appears calm, watchful, or contemplative rather than active. The alt is #Swans
'Mmmm ... life ... just what is it all about?' My #LaughingKookaburra friend being very contemplative.

Tired, stressed, broken,
once a proud
welcome #fence
to passing feet,
and visitors,
now tells the tale of
a different time
a changed life

Lives bound together,
Contained within neat boxes,
Who is my neighbour?

(Reflection on an artwork in the Brisbane Art Gallery. More photos from this piece of art in the comments.)
White line, black bitumen,
nine hours of highway
reminiscing about each
familiar place passed by,
where parts of me still
linger - had me pondering
… Is my soul restless?

Mackerel dawn sky
Harbinger of change afoot
Take an umbrella

Warm moisture rises
Liquescent drops, swell, darken
Rain falls to the earth

Some of the intriguing depictions within each apartment. Some bizarre. Makes you wonder who your neighbour is.
Ever since earth
spun into existence
a tussle between
ocean and land began,
the salty colossus relentlessly
pounds, gouges, claws
at every exposed
rock, beach, cliff,
it will never cease
it holds salt authority

Something a little different for a poem today, yet, something we can perhaps all relate to.

After many years, I finally picked up my knitting needles again. A great activity to focus the mind. The other day my mind went to the journey of the wool slipping through my hands. My late husband managed a sheep property most of his life, I got to know sheep.
