Love Song to Richmond Card
This card is made of 240gm kraft brown paper and comes with a kraft brown envelope - it is 6 x 6 inches in size
The design of this image is an expression of love for my home town of Richmond North Yorkshire - it is made with maps of Richmond and parts of local information leaflets plus a picture of the castle spoken of in the poem
The poem printed on the front and back of the card is as follows:
The castle walls take us for a walk amongst the treetops
Fearsomely towering above us
Glancing nervously down to the rushing river
Yet they shelter bright plumes of life clinging to the harshness
The walls still kindly holding seated nooks and crannies
For the people held by the admiring views
Of a hundred hidden places everyone loves to live by
Flows of people by the river
Children tobogganing the slopes of sunshine
Every man and his glad dog sharing the bright air
Back up the out of breath lanes
One way in the upward awkward cobbles
Back past the galleried lane
Out to the broad sweep of rumbling stones
The street fronted houses
With their alleyways of curiosity
And views of another life
Back home where I can see the castle
Through the trees with its cave door to the sky
Surrounding this town with its overarching love
The card is 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
