Dunkeld

Heavy truck vibrations
Imposition by key industry
On a small town street
Where shop and restaurant crowd in
Serving local and tourist alike
This narrow tarmac burn
Tributary of the A9 river
Nearing its confluence

Martin Addison – 17/04/2021

“You can never have too many lights!” Trucker wisdom 😉 Heavy trucks like this one serve the economically important forestry and lumber industry in Scotland. This poem and image are my entry for Clare’s Share Your Desktop challenge this month.
