One of a Pair

It was a cold winter day on the Fundy Bay when the wind and the Ocean Raged You were a child with the sweetest smile who walked through a storm for a mile Over the frozen sand as I held your hand, we made our way to the land Up over the banks past the shipyard tanks and a pile of old wooden planks Homeward bound as the snow fell down and wood shavings blew all around I held your hand like a grown man the way that your Mother planned Keeping you warm from the day I was born together we weathered the storm I was made by a hand, with wool from a lamb, with love knitted in every strand As soft as a kitten and Oh! So smitten, I...Just one of pair of mittens. April 12, 2018 Author: Elaine Cecelia George
