The Craft

This Craft
My Little Sidetrack

The Hair of the Equine
So Beautifully Strong
A Symbol of their Noble Worth
From which I fashion Creations for your Adornment

For some a Humble Trinket
of a Creature they Adore
For some a Lasting Bond
to the One whom they Adored

Each Strand between my fingers
Carefully laid, Carefully made
I twist and weave Memories into Love's Last Locks

-a hobby of mine...

Normally i'm not a fan of poems where there isn't a story told or progress of some kind, but this was well done and in the same way listening to white noise can be calming so too was this. Relaxing to just read about someone's hobby. thanks.

Thanks Cameron... funny you should say that, because I don't usually write poems like this either, but it seems everyone here at poetry soup has encouraged me to think outside my poetry box!... Glad you enjoyed it.
