Elemental
The Changing of the Seasons
Air heats in the dunes
And melts the snowy hilltops
To bring about spring.
Fire dries the flowers
The living seeks the water
On hot summer days .
Earth claims falling leaves
That turn orange in the trees
In cold autumn winds.
Water crystals fall
And blanket tall mountains white
On a winter morn.

The Reluctant Reporter
"You can't send me!" "There is no-one else. It's you or no-one, and that is not an option." Ameera looked at the fat paunch and florid face of her boss, a man who lived for the story and the kudos it brought him but who rarely gave consideration to the people behind the drama. When had he become so hard? She reckoned that by the end of the year, he'd be dead, collapsed from a heart attack and she struggled to conjure any sympathy in that moment and instantly felt ashamed at displaying the same lack of compassion that he had.
