Poetry and Photography from our Regenerative Ramble

It’s already been a week since our first #RegenerativeRamble and some of the participants have shared their responses to the time they spent in nature that day both as Haikus and/or as a photograph. The fireside sharing at the end of the day was wonderful, thanks to Lou’s amazing back-garden bonfire overlooking the sea in Margate and the contributions of everyone who participated. Hopefully what’s shared below gives you a flavour of it…

Wind and skylark song

Pull me higher and higher

Till with clouds I drift

Rising and falling away

Sun-soaked sap-rising branches

A sea of shimmering leaves

The lone heron, sharp and still

Waiting in shallows
