down on the floor
hands and feet would lift me ~
i was a plane

blew up balloons
she made me animals ~
i was dazzled

taught me stitches
loved skilled embroidery ~
i was craft sown

drew paper dolls
sketched with clothes to cut out ~
i was prized fun

read tales aloud
fueled my fantasies ~
i was book hooked

spent time with me
shared skills and joys with

Embroidery Thread

Embroidery thread comes in hundreds of hues
And searching the shelves it’s not easy to choose.
One purple’s too dark but the next one’s too light;
It’s hard to find one that is perfectly right.

Yet buying some extras just makes lots of sense
Since the thread isn’t close to a major expense;
So when I get some fabric to work

Embroidery his 2nd home

Yesterday, at Maker Space, I completed
Embroidering the image of your second home,
And you were sitting in there alone.
I also added embroidery of the poem,
Titled 2024.7.29, the first poem I posted
The one being featured on the Poetry Soup home page once.
I also included a popular poem in foreign language,
Which formed the lyrics of a movie's theme.
It

Premium MemberBeneath the evening's astral embroidery, the kiss was born timidly

Beneath the evening's astral embroidery, the kiss was born timidly,
A spark of hope, golden and gentle, in the fabric of the ephemeral.
A celestial arch, lips slowly bend towards the sea, aspiring to eternity,
And they withdraw serenely, to the measure of the waves, in a whisper of dance and twilight.
They gaze hidden, enveloped in coronas of

Premium MemberBeneath the evening's astral embroidery, a kiss blossomed shyly

Beneath the evening's astral embroidery, a kiss blossomed shyly,
A spark of hope, golden and gentle, in the fabric of the fleeting.
An arching celestial, lips gently incline towards the sea, aspiring to eternity,
And retreat serene, with the measure of the waves, in a whisper of dance and twilight.
They watch hidden, wrapped in crowns of smoke of

Premium MemberCharming Patterns

Silken thread
weaves charming patterns
of many colours
Cross stitch
needle in and out
Creating design of
pastoral harmony
When completed
and framed it will
hang on wall 
for many years
Finally
finding its way
into thrift shop
With luck someone
who appreciates
vintage crafts
will happily take home
this humble offering
So, the journey begins.

If I Were a Poet

If I were a poet
I would pour pieces
Of my heart on pages
Paint in crystalline clarity
The anguish of my ancestors
My poems would be embroidery
Tailoring the strives
of this generation
I would write aspiration
on the mountains of mama Liberia
That her children - yet unseen
Can see and maintain our dreams 

If I were a poet
I would write the dead to

Embroidery

Embroidery 


It’s okay 
To close your eyes
To fall asleep 
To breath in deep

If inferno heat
Shall sway the wind
Or kill the flame 
May it boldly show itself 

A frog upon a log
Or a lily pad
An embroidered cushioning 
A round , flat leaf

For the water lily 
Lilac
Ivory 
Lavender blooms 
Water daises 
Cupped hands 
Receiving fruit 
A mandala

EMBROIDERY OF VELLUM

A clean poem composed
Thee vellum virgin
Lace betrothed in length
Your satin train embraced

Thee embroidery in apple gold
Girdled in silver refined
And curvature of silhouette
Delicate with subtle design

Embroidery

She sat peacefully by the window
Gnarled brown hands creating magic
Every tiny stitch danced around in joy
The pastel blue and enchanting pink
Peeked from under her hands
The basket with its weaves and hues
Stood surrounded by tiny daises
She stitched love and care into each flower
Head bent life flowed from her hands
A garden filled with treasures
Night came, moonlight beamed
Hands

Premium MemberEmbroidery Piece

God tried to warn him many times
He got the handwriting on wall
Important for us really is
We need to recognize all

Life is like embroidery piece
Looking at the back side
Not so very drawing or neat
Just a jumble of threads

Turned over beauty_intricate
Design just started; done?
When just started partial picture
What will be when life's done

Our lives are  being
