"The Crystal Goblet"  [Reflections On Book - 100 Ideas That Changed Graphic Design Stephen Heller and Veronique Vienne - # 29]

When font and meaning mix and match,
And type with text sub-meanings catch,
Computer graphics make such tasks
Quite simple – better than the past.

Text dribbled down the page like rain;
A heading bent to shape, to gain
That added little boost which gives
New meaning, life so pages live.

I found that place of paragraphs
On spread did subtle feeling task
First time I tried augmented text –
No fancy stuff – I’ll try that next.

I’m starting to see how all this
Can bless a reader, like the kiss
From heaven which is photography,
Without just clichéd page we see.

Thanks Lord for this.
