Why Chimneys?

One may have a blazing hearth in one’s soul and yet no one ever came to sit by it. Passers-by see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and continue on their way.
- Vincent Van Gogh


I beg you
do not make this same mistake

Having glanced upon our title
“Chimneypots and Spires”,
you’ve planed to disembark

By all means
come sit beside our fire
warm body and soul

Rekindle that blaze within your mind,
once chilled and numbed
by the routine of existence

We hope to arouse in you
a strong desire to explore

Hence,
don’t pass by our chimney
watching a column of swirling smoke
rise over your shoulder

Do investigate our site
and all there is to discover

Like a spire reaching
connecting earth and heaven

This is an open invitation
to step out into our world

- Evelyn
