Where words become something you can wear, every design begins as a poem.\u00a0<\/p>
Not written to be printed, but written from inspiration,\u00a0a thought, a feeling, something observed or experienced.<\/p>
Each piece of poetry is original, written by the founder, then revisited to find the lines that carry something deeper. Not always the most obvious, but the ones that linger.\u00a0This is where those words come from, what they mean is yours to discover.<\/p>
Each design you see on Poetica starts here, as part of a wider poem, before becoming something you can wear. The designs don\u2019t replace the poetry; they grow from it.\u00a0And like all poetry, what you read may not be what was first intended, and that\u2019s part of its beauty. The meaning shifts with experience,\u00a0memory, and the moment you are in.\u00a0<\/p>

The tarred road turns to the gravel track, now through grassy meadows, we amble.
I climb the gates and stiles, while my friends slip through a hole, then we follow the farmers tractor flattened tracks
One loves the long grass and zooms around in pure joy, the other occasionally roams, but mostly brushes my knee
The Zoomer making circles around the Brush-knee and me, the Brush-knee bemused by all the zooming and noise
The excitement over, we all amble along the way, the dew still held in the grass, dampening our feet
Trees and bushes give way to reeds and rushes, as we near the stream, but we only hear it, not see, as reeds obscure our view
So, we amble along it\u2019s hidden bank, to a simple bridge and spy across the field the banks of something bigger
As we near, a pair of Herons take flight, skipping the water as they go, but the Swans move for no one, as they regally glide by
Zoomer and Brush-knee are looking for a way in, but this is a path untrod and the banks are covered in weeds
After a further amble we come to an almost hidden path, leading straight to the water's edge, an anglers access, may be.
Zoomer and Brush-knee cool off and drink their fill, before we head off to find our way back to the trail
A gate climbed and friends coaxed through the gaps, two fields more and another stile, before the trail is back in view
And the grassy meadows soon give way to the gravel track and the tarred road, that heads for home.<\/p>"},"borderRadius":{"id":127921265,"value":"#{text.border.radius}"},"textColor":{"id":127921266,"value":"#{text.color}"},"backgroundColour":{"id":127921267,"value":"#0000"},"truncateHeight":{"id":127921268,"value":null},"padding":{"id":127921270,"value":"3"},"fullWidth":{"id":127921271,"value":"0"},"fullBackgroundColor":{"id":127921272,"value":"#{text.fullBackground.color}"},"published":{"id":127921273,"value":"1"},"conditions":{"id":127921274,"value":"[]"},"template":{"id":129578122,"value":"text"}}},{"id":5085237,"type":"row","published":1,"size":{"x":12,"y":0},"order":6,"items":[{"id":5085238,"type":"pod","published":1,"size":{"x":12,"y":0},"order":0,"items":[],"properties":{"title":{"id":127921288,"value":null},"copy":{"id":127921289,"value":null},"media":{"id":127921290,"value":"image"},"image":{"id":127921291,"value":"{\"src\":\"https:\\\/\\\/images.podos.io\\\/m0qvuazvz5k8djgoqxuyaomj65n0xrh7d4gz1vattivsidwm.png.png?w=auto&h=auto&fy=0.49\",\"alt\":\"\"}"},"video":{"id":127921292,"value":null},"autoplayInBackground":{"id":127921293,"value":"1"},"titleSize":{"id":127921294,"value":"1"},"overlay":{"id":127921295,"value":"1"},"href":{"id":127921296,"value":null},"borderRadius":{"id":127921297,"value":"#{image.border.radius}"},"overlayOpacity":{"id":127921298,"value":"0"},"overlayColors":{"id":127921299,"value":null},"overlayDirection":{"id":127921300,"value":"90"},"padding":{"id":127921302,"value":"6"},"fullWidth":{"id":127921303,"value":"0"},"fullBackgroundColor":{"id":127921304,"value":"#fff0"},"published":{"id":127921305,"value":"1"},"conditions":{"id":127921306,"value":"[]"},"ratio":{"id":127921307,"value":"short"},"template":{"id":128200864,"value":"pod"}}},{"id":5092401,"type":"textBlock","published":1,"size":{"x":12,"y":0},"order":1,"items":[],"properties":{"padding":{"id":128200865,"value":"2"},"html":{"id":128200866,"value":"

After weeks of little rain, the usually powerful river Wye, is but a stream. Gently flowing through the shiny white rocks, normally unseen. Little rock pools, a nursery for the hatchlings of the great Salmon and Chubb.\u00a0 Piled up scree and rounded, flattened skimmers, leftovers from the winter flood.\u00a0 Rushes and driftwood, now left high and dry, until. The rains come and the parched riverbed will refill. Herons wait on the rocks or perch in the trees on the shore.\u00a0 Scanning the water and banks for fish and frogs and more.\u00a0 Moorhens and Ducks, scurry around and dive for their feed. While the majestic Swan, gracefully floats by, it doesn\u2019t see the need.\u00a0\u00a0 The beautiful house, with its river view bedrooms, sits high up on the bank.\u00a0 For protection from the 100-year flood, the current owner\u2019s, have a lord to thank. Originally a fishing lodge, tastefully and luxuriously upgraded, with surprises galore.\u00a0 Modestly called a bed and breakfast, but this Welsh heartland gem is so much more.\u00a0\u00a0 Open just a few times a year. If you're lucky, you\u2019ll be graced with a stay.\u00a0 Perfect combination of the enjoyment of nature, in a luxurious way. The welcoming friendly warmth and care, the hosts are naturally bestowing.\u00a0 Is in tune with the surrounding\u2019s and the ever-present river, gently flowing.<\/p>
