Trust
Trust that there is a tiger, muscular
Tasmanian, and sly, which has never been
seen and never will be seen by any human
eye. Trust that thirty thousand sword-
fish will never near a ship, that far
from cameras or cars elephant herds live
long elephant lives. Believe that bees
by the billions find unidentified flowers
on unmapped marshes and mountains. Safe
in caves of contentment, bears sleep.
Through vast canyons, horses run while slowly
snakes stretch beyond their skins in the sun.
I must trust all this to be true, though
the few birds at my feeder watch the window
with small flutters of fear, so like my own.

the year rests on
apples, a bottle, the moon
in mother orchard
the leaves are falling
Cotehele Full Bloom Renga April 25th 2010
The above two verses are from the two verse Autumn section of the Cotehele Full Bloom Renga.
Throughout the day Master Poet Paul Conneally and Host Poet John Hall were joined by vistors to Cotehele on the renga platform to write together a Renga poem.
Renga is a Japanese collaborative linked poetry form related to haiku poetry and dating back many hundreds of years. The process of writing the renga together in a particular place on a particular day is as important as the finished piece itself - maybe more so.
We cross cultures time place and space together.
The Full Bloom Renga is a piece devised for The National Trust Full Bloom Festival by Anne-Marie Culhane with Paul Conneally, Jo Salter and Alec Finlay.

"Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream.
It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit."
-- Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NRSV)
