April embraces the rough bark, feels green life pulsing within.
When she peers through the round knothole, a bright eye looks back at her.
Her eyes open wide with delight.

She hasn’t walked long before the trees fall into step beside her
They move together, gum-scented; warbling Magpies, crimson sky
Her campsite family’s lost, but she’s found her perfect companions

Yvette inherits Great-Uncle Sebastian’s house in Summer
Gradually, mould grows on white walls, lines and curlicues
When a patterned red-crossed country forms, she realizes
It’s his fabled treasure-map of Moldova

George stomps into the kitchen
‘That Gang’s outside again!’
Sue listens to the shrieking chatter
‘Enough!’
She slams the front-door open.
‘Hey!’
On the telegraph-wires the Kookaburras burst out laughing

Black-clad, Lila moves through silent darkness
When currawongs call pink dawn,
she sheds her sorrow
Reveals green-silk blossoming
daisies and daffodils, buds twining and blooming,
Skips, joyous, into the light 🌿🌼

Baklava sweet on her lips, Lila watches young men across the glowing square
They ponder backgammon moves, worry-beads clicking
One looks up at her, and smiles a wild white smile

She scrunches deep in the rock cleft, squeezes her eyes shut.
The air’s so thick with eucalyptus she can’t catch her breath, heartbeats so loud she can’t hear him following.

Rose uncurls her hands, palms etched with crimson half-moons. She tilts her head, listening, blood fast-beating.
At 6, the door slams open. Trembling, she forces a bright smile. Welcome home!

Will I live happily ever after Gran?
Gran watches, eyes kind
All in the way you perceive the world, Chicken
Charlie nods, solemn. Shares cake with the dog. Thought so…

Flying from his native soil, George squints at cartoon clouds, ponders… Will his blood recognise ancestral lands? He pats his lucky rabbits-foot. Just another 23 hours flying to find out

She studies his sleeping face, tries to learn every freckle, every eyelash, to decipher the code of him. When he wakes, all she sees is herself swimming in his eyes.

Grandma’s house, Sundays
Teapots, cups-and-saucers, scones, jam-and-cream, white tablecloth
Aunts, uncles. Cousins piled upon cousins
Chatting, laughter, warmth
Somehow, the humble kitchen table grows as fast as the family does

Lucy’s always coveted a sibling.
So when a stranger says:
‘Lucy? I know your brother, you two look exactly alike!’
her heart beats so fast, she thinks she might fly.

Midnight swimming, iridescent indigo sky arching wild overhead.
Floating in glitter-glimmering phosphorescence, I’m buoyant
with hope.
Alight with joy, I shed my skin...
Emerge from the sea, trailing stars...
