Larks are the Sparks, a title taken from 1969’s BBC Radiophonic Seasons album, is a skyward ekphrasis, taking the magic of kites as the starting point. 

Using a high-colour, high-contrast photographic book of 70s Kite Flying, what Catherine writes is pure up, up and away, asking us where the breeze might take us next. Frame it or cut it to a diamond and fly it, there are no limits. 

A2 double-sided poster poem, folded in a windowed envelope.

Catherine Norris is a poet living in Malvern, Worcestershire.  She has poems in Four Way Review, Lucy Writers, Sad Girl Diaries, Strings and Inter-view. She records “twinkling rustics and dreamy faraways” under the name Plastic Moonrise. 

“Catherine Norris’s work is radically, spiritually open to the world of the metaphysical, but so rooted in the familiar – the spaces and relationships we know, or think we do –  that it takes the reader with it every step of the way. Like all great poetry it takes you on a kind of round trip in your head, lights up your own memories and connections, and meets you on the other side through distinctively crafted images and emotional resonance. A wonderful new voice.”
