On day 15 of groving: Silver Spoon, the second of Sandra Lane's seductive sculptures...? toys....? sweeties....? is in the Abbey Gardens, adding to the attractions. The poem written in response is by Ed Arantus.

To taste you is to want you
To sparkle and to lick you
To see you I desire you
A conflict that can love
But I feel the beat
Of a heart that bursts full of
A sweet snail’s pace arms race 
 
Oh missile marzipan
You fire as fast as you can
Of life's sweetest candy, don’t lose it?
You might never taste me again
 
To taste you is to fear you
I sparkle to be near you
You lick me, and desire me
Sweet kisses saved for two
There you go again
Don’t forget that we are friends
Too late to make amends
 
Ed Arantus
