'Ashes, Ashes' by Nicky Peters
'Ashes, Ashes' by Nicky Peters

‘Ashes Ashes’ is a poem celebrating a huge coppiced ash tree known amongst the Tregoniggie Woodland community as the ‘Tregoniggie Titan’. Ash trees in the UK are under threat from disease, ash dieback, which threatens to wipe out the entire ash population, and third year student Nicky Peters writes with this in mind, creating a poem that is an homage and a possible farewell to a fascinating member of the woodland community.

'Below Densham’s Delight: Fungus Symbiosis' and 'Other Apples in the Orchard 2' by Nicky Peters
'Below Densham’s Delight: Fungus Symbiosis' and 'Other Apples in the Orchard 2' by Nicky Peters

Inspired by a residency at the Roger and Laura Farnworth Arts Residency in Bodmin, Nicky Peter’s poems ‘Fungus Symbiosis’ and ‘Other Apples in the Orchard 2’ are an inquiry into the disgusting, surreal, and warped version of tree life that is often ignored in favour of more romantic readings of the natural world. The poems explore the symbiotic relationship between tree root and fungus, and the moments of decay that aesthetic images of apple orchards omit.
