she sits
amoung the clutter
she knits

she sits
oblivious to your mutters
she knits
≈
she sits
making you a sweater
she knits
≈
she sits
creating a life that she’ll like better
she knits

Love this!!
Thanks!
Reminds me of an old tongue twister, which ran something along the lines of: “She sits and knits among the peas, and as she sits she sees and knits” etc. Great fun at high speed.

Almost haiku-y of sorts! Very good!
Thanks! I do write a lot of haiku… but this wasn’t meant to be… kinda close though. Thanks for reading and commenting 🙂
Something so sad but hopeful in your words.
I’m glad you picked up on the hope that was where I was going in the end. 🙂
In other words, “What we focus on we empower”. But the story does not end there, What becomes empowered creates its own ripple effect further than one will ever know……So what life are you knitting for yourself? Do I see New York Times best seller novelist,? Oh well, you are the one who knits the blanks……………………………………………….
Do I hear your agent calling? It is true, it is exactly what you knitted and the bands are already marching in………………
You are so right…the story does not end there… it is a new beginning.
Thank you again for thinking so highly… bestsellers list indeed…I’m not there yet 🙂
