Fours Seasons – Small Leaves Cards - pack of 4
These cards are made of 240gm kraft brown paper and come with a kraft brown envelope – they are 6 x 6 inches in size
The design on the front came about by accident when I ordered a new craft punch in this lovely smaller size of oak and beech leaf ! The design is combined with some bright daisies and mimics the swirling and meandering paths of leaves and there is one each in the pack – Spring small leaves , Summer small leaves , Autumn small leaves and Winter small leaves
The poems on the back are matched to each season :
The contrasting delicacy
Of Spring
Battered by a March wind
From Winter
Yet within the promised warmth
Of summer
The sweeping brush wind
Hustling the clouds away
A moment of transcendance
A rainbow
With its subtle magic
A pale reflection
Of the verdant colour of life
Bursting forth
From the silence
The faded bluebells of late spring
And the lollipops of dandelion seeds
Give way
To every colour of green available
The birds shrieking
Songbirding
The exalted days
Of nest making
And parenting
The blackbirds guarded warning
Mixed with songs of love
Bringing forth new life
As sure as the trees
Are filled with summers light and warmth
The snow of leaves
Falling to dance
With the old lady grass
The windy trees
The only orchestra
To touch the cold air
To swim through it nose first
To feel the numb fingers
To see the clouded breath
To encircle with woollen layers
To feel the warmth of pockets
To come inside to rapid heat
To preserve for a moment
The cold freshness of coats and scarves
To feel the joy of Winter
The sense of cold
The sense of approaching snow
With its peace and muffle
All raise my spirits
With familiarity
Bringing treasured memories
Of childhood’s moments of joy
As Christmas approaches
The cards are blank inside for your own message
Please do be aware that although the card does follow a design - as they are hand made it is impossible to exactly replicate the design each time - this does however make them unique. Also due to monitor differences the colour on your screen may be slightly different to the product
