More purple verse than purple prose
Douglas town centre has come alive with purple posters showcasing local verse.
The Manx Poetry Trail for 2017 has been launched, going from Douglas Town Hall, along Strand Street then up Broadway to Victoria Road.
Fifteen winning poems from a variety of poets have been chosen for display.
Trail Guides can be found at each of the 15 venues involved - if you like to find out more you can head the IoM Poetry Society's facebook page.
The group's chairman, Bethany de Legh-Runciman, explains why poetry is important to her:

Farmer says he's losing one metre of land a year to coastal erosion
