To work with you

Back in the Letterpress saddle. I meditatively typeset 10 pt Baskerville, all 59 lines of it. My eyes ache in impatience for the new piece to show itself. Paper/ink/size choices to be decided. For now I select each letter with utmost love for the process.

Hello March

The sea may still be cold but

Hey sunshine

It's been a while sky

Hello toes

Nice to see you snowdrops

Bicycle greetings

I've missed you green

A pinch and a punch

Farewell February.

So long wet frizz-hair air

See you later thermals

Bye bye chapped skin

Adieu double parking tickets

Toodle-pip porridge

Cheerio shades of brown

Missing you already Pancakes
