Poetry in Motion Spring Duet note set by A C H A R A Stationery

Poetry in Motion is a project that aims to explore meaningful connection through poetry and the handwritten word. 

This edition’s poem is by writer and poet Niamh Donnellan and celebrates motherhood. Spring Duet reminds me of the time in those early days, the beauty but repetitiveness of it, the tender moments found in mundane tasks. The newness and intense attention to growth, things so tangible in Spring (especially after the winter we’ve had!).

Poetry in Motion celebrates poetry that evokes tradition, community and treasured relationships; nature, a sense of place, and belonging. It celebrates the tangible quality of receiving handwritten words on paper and their potential to reinforce bonds that have been diluted by time, technology, or for many other reasons.
