Knittings

two tyburns 

anxious
specious
precious
righteous
When they released anxious, specious hate,
they woke to a precious, righteous state.

pious
gracious
callous
fractious
Potentially pious, gracious souls
were redeemed from callous, fractious roles.

Knittings was my first tyburn and one with a special meaning for me. Thanks, Andrea, I'm off and on at PS, my age is catching up with me; but my youngest grandchild is finally in Kindergarten this year, so I have less child care duties. Appreciate your comment.

My appreciation to your, Anne-Lise for the nice comment. Planning for some much needed rain tomorrow and rest tonight. I did a Walk-a-thon at my grandson's school today in the 95 degree heat; the new thing in fund-raising, donate money for "healthy" exercise, not sure how healthy walking in that kind of heat is; but he liked having both his Granny and Nana there.
