WE'RE KNIT TOGETHER

You, my life and my girl 
In these together 
If we have to burn 
In the embers they fan 
We're dying together 

I abort her never 
She has to deliver 
And the world of her dad 
Rule over forever. 

You, my life and my love 
In eyes yours I see my girl 
So closely knit

Premium MemberMay God bless the drive thru's

Several weeks in to this healing journey.
Grateful of course, there was no gurney..
Now waiting for these bones to knit.
It's challenging for me to quietly sit.
Wheeling around my condo floors,
the metal stripping's are loose once more.
My wheel chair clunks on the foyer tiles.
Some days my arms feel they've walked several miles..
I amble to my car with

The Maker : Knit and Purl


The Maker wields the needles
 of predestination and free will,
One in each strong, talented hand. 
Knitting the yarn and thread of our lives
Into the fabric of time with such love.
Knit ,with predestination;
His will is done.
Purl ,with free will;
Our choices made.
Knit and purl, purl and knit,
The pattern known to Him and

Premium MemberA Coat for best

Sorting out struggling moments, listening to Dolly Parton: A coat of many colours, a rainbow of wisdom 
sang for changing. Turning  back is possible, a turning point means new feet to walk on.
I mean further, new feet to dance on. Let me take you for a dance. We can get our wings ready to

In her old-fashioned world
It's knit one pearl two;
The pattern never changes,
The vesture never finished.

Premium MemberTeddy Gets a New Outfit

Teddy looked sad, forlorn cold and bare
Sat on the bed with nothing to wear
So aunty got out her knitting pins
To knit Teddy some warm cosy things.

First came a jumper in shades of blue
Then some trousers, the same colour too
Also a scarf, a hat and some mitts
To please Pip, her young nephew that is.

Aunty knitted all

Premium MemberShe Likes To Knit Her Noodles

Her chopsticks are at the ready.
Her hands are good and steady.
She likes to knit her noodles!
The task has just begun...

She starts off with a mango Welt
With pride, with zest, with tang.
It's a mesmerising watch
While the wiggling noodles hang.

Next. She's on to saucy Stocking Stitch.
Her garment sure does grow!
Knit one - Purl one - Knit two

Premium MemberArt and Crafts

Tina learnt to knit her own sweater
Instructions followed to the letter
Many stitch she did drop
Gave too many a strop
When made looked like been through a shredder

Next she wanted to learn to crochet
Make flowers tied into a bouquet
Got her yarn in a twist
Knots and ties would not shift
But did look like a crochet toupee

Decided to learn

Devotion Poem, Like Snow Leopards

(Written for Jim Eslinger)

Out on one of the Great Plains of Yahweh, It seems
You may have gone on a hunt, or a long searching.
But no matter the reason, in the time apart from you, I
Stand static against the endless sky.  We are snow leopards,  
You and I, bonded,
Monogamous, champions

Loose Knit

Loose Knit
by Michael R. Burch 

She blesses the needle,
fetches fine red stitches,
criss-crossing, embroidering dreams
in the delicate fabric.
 
And if her hand jerks and twitches in puppet-like fits,
she tells herself
reality is not as threadbare as it seems ...
that a little more darning may gather loose seams.
 
She weaves an unraveling tapestry
of fatigue and remorse and pain;

Premium MemberDon'T Need To Know How To Knit

Money alone won’t make you happy, you must own it
Don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure that one out I'll admit
Well at least grade two
To stay ahead of the queue
Some Presidents don't even need to know how to knit

She Liked To Knit

On the old couch is where my grandmother would sit
Knowing that on it is where she would knit
Oh if I could share if I could only tell
The joy from her eyes I knew all too well

She would sleep on the couch and he would cover
Her from the cold room my dear old grandmother
When alzheimer's hit

Knit Picking

Zits!

Pus problems ... oozing wipe love,
has got them innocent bite fangs showing
That baby drac queen moon face turning
into a teenage mutant turtledove

Cold cream cyber hits

Another three-day seclusion ... 
chained to a marred model illusion
Hip adolescent Wonder Woman
changed into a square Lois — 
closing the fast lane to popularity
Matinee crash dream ten-dollar scraping
for a heart wreck,
