Poetry, Texas

When I tell folks that my store is in Poetry, Texas, the resounding reply is "Where?". Poetry is outside of Terrell. It's about halfway between Dallas and Canton. It is beautiful! I have deer in my back yard. Not a lot of traffic. Not too far from anything, but far enough from everything.

The history of Poetry can be read here. I came to know of Poetry in the late 90's when my sister and her then husband purchased some land in Poetry. I lived in the city then, and often found myself donning work boots and jeans to head out to the country. It was only a 30 minute drive from where I lived at the time, but it was a world of difference between one place and the other.

I moved to Poetry in 2004 and opened Primitiques in Poetry in 2007. Primitiques is located inside Jack's Town and Country.
