We used a poem by @theferocity this morning in our writing workshop. The Mississippi is a different place to the Penryn River, but we got there. Magic.

Freshwater mixing with salt, waters edge this morning. Beware- noisy sea! Preparing myself mentally for running a poetry workshop for Falmouth Fringe. It went great- talented writers, good coffee, quiet room, focus and inspiration.

From Sea Summit by Yi Lu. I love poetry that has been translated, when it’s printed next to the original. This one is ‘My Own Sea’. What would yours look like?
