Winged seeds spin down
Hoping to touch the sky once
More with their branches
More with their branches
I thought haiku would be a fitting accompaniment to these tiny aceo-sized lino prints of sycamore seeds. I love the poems in The Tale of Murasaki (Liza Dalby) but its a long time since i've read this and i've never tried to compose a haiku myself - so big apologies to the purists for my clumsy attempt ;-).
The prints are available here. I designed them as a diptych, to sit alongside one another, but i like them just as well as singles.
