urbpanI got an email this week: "today I published a poem inspired by one of the photographs in your blog"
Chicory at Castle Island
For now,
the powder blue flower
frisks
in the cool wind
and lingers
at salt water’s edge,
reclaiming the sand
for plants.
Pretty sure those photos are by Alexis, at least the better, second one. They are from this post about chicory, part of the 365 species project.
The poem was published on Jellyfish Whispers, and the poet is Marianne Szlyk.
