Stretch up your long necks to face the sun.

Echo the great beasts that work among us
unbridled in this kingdom between canal and firth
here to harness the river
and carry each weary traveller
Bow down your strong heads to taste the water
Stretch up your long necks to face the sun
Jim Carruth

This is the poem that inspired the Kelpies and the words are written across the site.
