Dust Print

Dust Print

from £24.00

By Popular Demand! It makes me so happy every time someone tells me they have used my poem Dust for their wedding - lots of people have asked if it will ever be available as a print, and it’s finally here. Another collab with the fab Medley Design Studio, available both as the full text and a standalone line - in both a beautiful blue and a classy cream - with a discount for a matching set. I probably won’t reprint all four once I know which ones people actually like, so get them while you can!

A3 Unframed print - Printed on 100% recycled and FSC paper in Leeds UK.

Full text reads:

It’s not the flowers; it’s the 

weeding in the mud with you.

It’s not the champagne; it’s the 

cuppa in that favourite mug you use. 

It’s not the chocolate; okay, yes, it is — 

but not just one or two. It is becoming 

Bruce Bogtrotter and Augustus Gloop. 

It’s voting frozen pizza

over fancy grub with you,

because some nights nothing 

can beat a slice of comfort food.

It’s knowing anything I eat

will include some for you,

because you’re not hungry, but you 

might just have a couple spoons. 

It’s not the dreaming;

it’s the waking up with you.

I want to be here long enough 

to gather dust with you. 

For us love isn’t in the air;

that is just where we found it.

All this is built upon what 

we have done to ground it. 

It’s not the spark when we first met; 

it is the lifetime built around it.

It’s by small amounts that 

mounds amount to mountains. 

I need not justify, adjust

or fear I’m judged by you.

Such is the glorious 

consistency of loving you. 

My heart’s not skipped a beat;

it still constantly thuds for you. 

Such is the everyday 

magnificence of loving you. 

It’s not something we fell into 

so much as stumbled through. 

It’s the spectacular 

normality of loving you. 

It’s not the dreaming;

it’s the waking up with you.

I want to be here long enough 

to gather dust.
