à ceux qui font

Inspired by the London Design Fair

London From Above • Hand Embroidered Cotton on Wool • by Richard McVetis

For all the crafty games
My ambient words play,
I stand humbled;

Watching superheroes
In action, as they dare
To work wood and metal,

Cutting stone into finely
Woven pieces of crimson
Earth, draped in blown glass.

This is for every and any one who has ever had anything to do with working in the crafts. To all the persistent men and women who despite the pressures and obstacles of life, still find a way to turn bright ideas into tangible realities… to all of you highly skilled superheroes, I humbly say… thank you!
