Dedicated especially to Samuel 'Tailor' Coleridge. A little levity there amidst your profound penning, Sara.

You have truly excelled in creating your Kimo, my dear friend. Just as a skilled tailor meticulously sews with a delicate silk thread, you craft your words with the same exquisite precision. Your writing, dear Sara, is a masterpiece.

I spent six years in virtual silence. Now I have a carer and peace is a thing of the past. Lovely poem though. Blessings.

You have done a wonderful job with your Kimo, my friend. As the tailor works with a silken thread, you work with silken words. Very well written Sara.

Your poem fits the picture used too so very well! I love how you’ve done this kimo. And how well it flows. Especially love the line “ creates something from nothing” i know few that create something from nothing. And they are the ones worth writing about. “ sews soft eloquent words” ah love that line! The smoothness of your words truly is soul warming. Sending you light today and always

Sara, this is so lovely and so gentle in its eloquence! Indeed writers create garments for the soul with "silk" threads of words. Thank you for this lovely moment. Blessings!
