Head to Toe

This is a repeat for my regular readers (from this post here), but when I saw the prompt for the Magpie I just couldn't resist!


A needle (or two –
if you are a knitter).
An hour or ten –
you aren’t a quitter!
A scarf, a hat,
a loverly shawl,
mittens & sweaters –
imagine them all.

In front of the TV.
On your lunch break at work.
While your children are sleeping.
Till you come to with a jerk.

Everyone you know
is covered head to toe.

Sigh.

Maybe…

Your nephew’s girlfriend’s mother
could use a scarf.

2024 Project 365 – Week Twelve

I woke up not feeling well and skipped church (for the second week in a row - oops), but that doesn’t keep me from being deep in the throes ...
