‘Breath for Breath’

Poppies Spoon Carving

Inspired by the poem ‘Echo’ by Christina Rossetti and drawing on the Poppy’s symbolic association with the remembrance of those that we’ve lost. This spoon takes its name from the last verse...
’Yet come to me in dreams, that I may live
My very life again tho’ cold in death:
Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
Speak low, lean low,
As long ago, my love, how long ago.’
— Giles
