Stay
Awhile
A
collection of poetry and art
Traversing
the deep landscapes
Of love,
loss and finding home.
Stay Awhile follows three distinct themes, of love, loss and
finding home. Reflections and reverberations. This collection explores these
notions, in a visual and textual pairing. Prose and painting taking a plutonic
presence on the walls, weaving a visual and symbolic narrative.
Prose drifts from the urban to existential, while the
paintings follow a more direct path. There is a reverence present in the works.
That for the Australian bush, in all its complexities, beauty and diversity, it
embodies a sense of home and of place, unique in its own right.
This collection of paintings, installations and poetry
invites the viewer to follow along, in this brief journey and as the title
suggests, Stay Awhile.

The Start of the End of Things
The Start of the End of Things
Flustered sighs and unkept misgivings
Boil and spill over
Like unwatched pasta.
Only to settle again,
When fires momentarily quell.
The undercurrents stir still
Waiting, and amplifying reverberations
Of disquietude.
An unsettling notion to witness.
Cold and unforgiving,
The stony glances and frost ridden replies
Crust over a place once warm with love.
I guess this is the start of,
The end of things.
Sailing Home
Sailing
Home
Before
your ship sails,
And the
sun sets behind the gumtrees,
Sit a
while longer.
Let us
bask in the fading embers,
Of life
and loves embrace,
Till
what will be,
We’ll
see.

For You -- Morning Drive poems- Valentine's addition
For You
It’s for you,
I do these little things,
Sometimes I might daydream it,
So, perhaps you don’t even notice,
And that’s ok.
I struggle when your days
Are filled with strife,
And fear most,
the
days without
You.
An emptiness,
Irreplaceable
