‘The river wants me to stop and be quiet so I can listen more deeply. The river wants me to hear the wind moving through the leaves and the blades of grass softly brushing up against each other. The river knows that if you move slowly along the path you can hear everything that’s around you and everything that’s inside you. The river tells you not to ask where you are going but to follow its forward flow until you meet the sea.’
Participant’s poem, ‘River Writes’ workshop, Earthed Residency
