"You turn to me, your mother, and I see your face, my own, your father's, those before."
— The Light Gatherer, Carol Ann Duffy
Written by former UK Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy as a gift to her newborn daughter, The Light Gatherer is one of the most tender and luminous poems ever written about new life, motherhood, and the extraordinary miracle of a child coming into the world. Warm, intimate, and quietly breathtaking — it captures the feeling of holding your baby for the first time and knowing that everything has changed, forever and completely.
Printed in crisp black and white on luxurious textured fine art paper, this is a print that belongs in every nursery — a piece of genuine literary beauty to grow up alongside your little one and be treasured long into adulthood.
A deeply meaningful gift for new mothers, expectant parents, and anyone welcoming a precious new life into the world.
