Green (September)


September everywhere green, similar to moods. Ocean water for miles through winding trees below the road past Lorne. Or the dark green firs of Queenscliff, staying dark even when sun comes out. Tired green alongside the Geelong road, or is it just we who are tired? Up in Melbourne, hillsides of silver green and serried green exchange bristling antics with the wind. A shower drifts across a rainbow above the valley. Freeways guide the drivers’ side vision with solemn sheoaks. Broad and shiny are camellias in Rosanna. Home is where the trees fill raindrops on windowpanes with newly leafing maples.
