WILD WEST

  1. Return to the Wild

Large wheels turning
Engines pumping
Ponies pulling
Stones crushing
Tall chimneys pointing
Like fingers
Into the dark, dirty skies

Birds now singing
Bees are buzzing
Rabbits grazing
Buds are shooting

Tranquility
Harmony
Peace
As earth reclaims the wilderness
Which is truly hers once more



This is the piece I made for the Quilters Guild A.G.M. Wild West Challenge.
It was a photograph I took of a derelict tin mine, which I covered with black chiffon and stitched.
I wrote the poem to describe how it made me feel being there.
