Sonia Walker Poet Rhyme

Crocheting Granny

I am the crocheting granny,
the one who carries ample hooks
within a floral bag and yarn-a-plenty,
making baby blankets from how-to books.

I am the crocheting granny,
who looks forward to learning new stitches,
creating patterns of colorful design,
until I stumble upon some glitches.

I am the crocheting granny
who frequents all the hobby stores,
searching for sales to satisfy my need
as I walk briskly through their doors.

I am the crocheting granny 
who enjoys attending baby showers,
sharing my hand-made gifts with delight
which my fingers worked for hours.

I am the crocheting granny,
finding delight in all my projects,
spanning over the years,
cherishing my hobby objects.
