The Craft

I’ll spin for you
Our evening song
With threaded colours
Many.

You’ll knit for her
A blanket long
With woven tones of
Plenty.

She’ll wear for us
The blanket warm,
Upon her shoulders
Shaking.

Those shoulders once
Were sleeping place
Of babies’ softest
resting.

So I do spin,
And you do knit,
And she receives
The wearing.

For handmade gifts
Of friendships rich
Are found in deepest
Grieving.
