possible embroidery poem

*


a poem 'for stitch' - I am working on a new series of embroidered and wearable poems


this I may attempt today


Write a list of things -
the small and every day loves -

like violets, smiles,
birds with fraying feathers.

Pencil handwriting,
a kiss on a china cup.

Mirrors etched by years,
soft spoken letters,

a jar of moss,
a handful of pearly buttons.
