chasing the boulder.

having looked before,
i looked again on my way,
past the laundry cottage
on the bend.

low tide indeed, no
**** up with the tide, sand
showing.

back along, slow and glance,
see the thing, reverse return.
standing proud, the wooden boulder,
david nash sculpture. me in dancing shoes,
the river bank deep mud.

i had to photograph it.

quite badly from a distance.
i will go again.

i liked the montbretia.

sbm.

* notes ( i have not written notes a while )
Montbretia
Crocosmia is a small genus of flowering plants in the iris family, Iridaceae. It is native to the grasslands of the Cape Floristic Region, South Africa. They can be evergreen or deciduous perennials that grow from basal underground corms.

*extra note

David Nash is known for works in wood and shaping living trees. His large wood sculptures are sometimes carved or partially burned to produce blackening. His main tools for these sculptures are a chainsaw and an axe to carve the wood and a blowtorch to char the wood.
