First grace from sun's soul
Bedecked in tangerine splendour
Tiptoes through window
Into broken heart sews it whole

In this small house,

The winter sews pillows

The sisters- the blizzards weave fluffy carpets,

The old man with a white beard

Draws the ice pictures.

He rings with the crystal handbells

And composes the magic dreams

For children....

She cooks, she sews
    a relic of the past
  the way the world goes

  A dimple in her cheek
    brave hope holed up in her heart
  that one knight in shining armor
    can still do his part

  to sweep her off her feet
    and into his arms
  where he will bask forever
    in her winsome charms...

Woven threads, of fate's design,
A girl child's future is intertwined.
With education's needle, strong and fine,
She sews her path, a destiny divine.

Each stitch a lesson, a wisdom gained,
Her tapestry of dreams is unchained.
She weaves her life, with skill and grace,
A vibrant future, she will embrace....

Everyone Knows Jesus Arose

Jesus arose and I do suppose
That everyone am sure knows
To heaven is where He goes.

Feel him in wind as it blows
And see after the lake froze
Grass that grows and grows.

He protects me from my foes
Together my life hems and sews
Is my savor and was He I chose.

Where mind sews cobwebs,
I take out a dissolving spyglass.
The space between this self
looks back seeing nothing.

That which holds,
rolls over mind-clouds,
finding no anchors.

The day will take me soon,
make me be what I claim to be,
but in any next pre-dawn
surfacing,

I will know again,
that I am not....

a moment be as...
a 'mow-meant' to clear
any space we be...

in

so time as change be just...
so that whatever any mom-meant leaves behind
sews a new space-time present...

that

be for what follows it next and...
be itself as the new space-time moment that will
become a staircase to another new future...

a shadow is a reminder
of 
where you came from
where you're going
who's running beside you
who you left behind
who left you behind
who you're chasing
who's haunting you
who's enchanted you
what you're sliding from..
who you run to when life's sprinting by-bye you

dusk will cleave the shadow
but the sun sews it back onto you...

Gentle soul grant thee a boon
the dawn is coming much too soon.
No I won't wish for treasures there
not silver thread or starlit hair,
not for the passion of a comet's blaze
nor golden glow of starlit haze.

My only wish to hold the pearly moon
that rests at the throat forever.
That loving, glowing midnight rune
that sews my universe together....

Thus wilting becomes of me, the star so constant, yet so lonely, 
Was tiss the hight yet to be reached, what is our limit? 
Thy'est thunder reaps my soul for what it sews... 
What tiss thee end? 
Ney encomber thee, powerfully tempted, upon thee, 
What tiss the end? 
A'Loft, a-sunder, encombered, enwrapped in a colapse
Of thoughts falling like snowflakes in the sun....

grandparents don’t want time out
the music stops from children’s tops
gone are the days they played with toys 
spilled food dropped cleaned up with mops
cuddling in blankets, sews bonding joys.

photos in a scrapbook reviews the past  
grandma & grandpa’s pride hangs on the wall  
sentimental thoughts of blessings to  last
lets have them back when they were small....

Suzy Rose had a knack for clothes
All she does all day is sews
Picking out the finest cotton and feathers
But she can never dress for the weather
Cometh down rain, snow and thunder
Suzy's outfit is always a disaster

Fear not, Suzy is a woman of prosperity
She doesn't drink juice, she drinks tea!
Cometh down rain, snow and thunder
She'll just wear 7 layers under!...

A rooster struts, an eagle soars,
A caterpillar inches;
A dolphin leaps, a panther slinks,
A crab, if bothered, pinches.

A farmer reaps, a tailor sews,
A chef sautés and seasons;
A dentist drills, an artist paints,
All with their private reasons.

My husband vacuums and he cooks
To keep his psyche going,
While I write rhymes so I’ll recall
Which way the wind was blowing....

My mother is now very old,

A widow of tales untold,

First gift,"mahar"of my father,a sewing machine to her,singer sold,

To my mother this machine is like gold,

She still sews in memory of Thajudeen to hold,

Singer machine sings d..e..e..n...d..e e..n like a doll,

Singer machine sings d..e..e..n...d..e e..n like a doll,

My mother enjoys the melody of singer in many folds!...

The outrage spills
sews evil seeds
reaps injustice
as innocence bleeds.

Misguided few
opinions flawed
fallacious minds
spurred by fraud.

Seek what's true
for better aim
this acting out
shall bring you shame!!





Violent destructive acts upon the property of others, (Tesla) for whatever reason, cannot be justified, you are a criminal and you should be severely punished!!...

She sews for the neighbors
She sews for us three
She sews for her children
She sews for me

We are in awe, for she makes beautiful things
We are amazed at her talent, and the happiness she brings.
She sews at night, in the morning and noon sometimes.
We love her products, they are free, cost us no dimes.

She sews and sews and none of us know why.
Until we see her sewing poster and feel lucky we do not die....

Gina
always lights up a room
a smile as big as a lollipop
smells fresher then new cut hay
loving as a new puppy
works harder then a beaver
heart as big as the grand canyon
the specialists person in my life
cooks better then sara lee
fishs better then bill dance
more outdoors then davy crocket
sews better then a sewing machine
builds better then the amish
drives better then jeff gordon
glows brighter then the sun
thats why we love gina...

The wound saddened her and the scab would not dry.

She is frayed but with dignity sews and patches herself.

Time ticks as she waits patient, alert for the door closing.

And she waits.

Her clothes are torn from too many washings.

Too many stains.They should be thrown away.

But with tenderness she tries to make it work,once more.

And she waits

If you can hear me . Now is the time for help.

Sewing her dreams one by one helps and the waiting....
