Notes About The Poem

 A Single Nonet on the theme of a hobby, a love or something you Like. Sponsored by: Tania Kitchin

 

 

 

 

Knitting

Knitting's my hobby, I never stop
Blankets, sweaters, gloves, hats and socks
All colours of a rainbow
Chunky or double knit
Whatever it is
I will not stop 
Till the day 
That I
Drop

This is delightful! It has a rhythm all of its own and I feel I can hear the needles working away. I love howv it drifts off almost absentmindedly

That’s it Victor, one’s heart has to be in it, from one who’s always knitted… Beryl

Thank you Valsa. I enjoy knitting very much, these days I just knit baby blankets and I donate them to our local hospital, they have a stall there where they sell items for charity. It’s one way of showing gratitude for all the medics have done for us over the years. Blessings, Beryl

Thank you Sara. My mother knitted for us five daughters, she was a lovely knitter. I remember when I was young having a doll for my birthday, the next day I’d got a lovely outfit for her that mom had knitted overnight… Beryl
