1912 Tennyson’s Christmas Greeting Verse

Step into the refined beauty of Christmas 1912 with this exquisitely designed vintage postcard, where poetry and holiday sentiment are gracefully entwined. At the center, an ornate red “G” begins the word “Greeting,” its curving lines cradling a delicate blue vignette of a church or castle, evoking a quiet, sacred winter moment. The rest of the word fades gently into view, like a memory softened by time.

A garland of soft pink flowers and green leaves wraps the scene in gentle color, echoing the card’s message below: “Past and Present wound in one do make a garland for the heart,” a touching quote attributed to Tennyson. The phrase ties together nostalgia and the enduring warmth of Christmas, making this card as much a keepsake as it is a greeting.

The words “A Happy Christmas” at the bottom complete the piece in a classic serif font, all set against softly striped yellow tones that add a gentle glow. This card is a quiet celebration of memory, beauty, and heartfelt connection.

This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift or stocking stuffer, a unique holiday decoration, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
