Inspired?

Sun Trails

Sun Trails

Standing still on earth

I watch sun paint in light

Rising arcs on blue

– Haiku  by Jean Cole

As this phase of solargraph canisters continue to be gathered in (if you still have one it is not too late to hand it just leave a message and we will arrange collection.) we are also looking for works that have been inspired by them. If you have any poetry, prose or even other imagery which has been evoked by the sun trails, please submit it to the project by email/comment for inclusion in the next part of the project.

Estuary by Elspeth Brown

Estuary

Out of the fir trees
river rustle unfolds
to silken slip-stream.

Thrush scurries through scrub,
golden beak stuffed with straw
spotted breast puffed out.

Collie snuffles the shore,
paws wet from the high tide,
disturbs a plover.

Waxwings bunch on twigs,
crests raised, berry picking,
gone in a heart beat.
