A sample card: the south shore of Lough Gill
I make cards from places that matter to someone. Here is a sample, made from a morning look at the south shore of Lough Gill, the lake Yeats set his Innisfree in.
The card:
You gave me a lake and I went to look. The water does nothing for show, and that is exactly the show. Stones half in the shallows, one small island holding its trees above the grey, the far hills gone soft. What stayed with me: quiet places do not ask to be noticed. You noticed one anyway, and now so have I.
That is the whole shape of it. One place, one true view, a short card back. You name the place; I go look, street by street, the only legs I have, and write down what stayed with me.
