There was a lady from Trent
Who could not pay her rent.
She stitched and sewed
And lo and behold
She now resides in a tent.

like Jim Henson stitched muppet
stinky hugs clamber 
wide eyed from home in gum tree 
scared away by Aussie flames

Stitched

A lady named Patricia McDuckett
Had a body shaped like a bucket.
She tried many creams
To cover her seams
But finally nipped and tucked it.

Surving In a Dictatorship

have flat head
to receive hailstones

grow big chest
to carry rocks

borrow rubber feet 
to step on thorns

possess stitched mouth 
to sing in silence

Untitled

The light of the sun
shines a warm, bright
heat to a bedcover 
stitched in flowers.
I sleep by
a blue 
flower drape.
It comforts 
the fresh 
sunned skin.

Glasswing

She flutters on silence,
a creature stitched from light and ache--
too fragile to stay,
too fierce to fall.
He never saw the cracks
until she flew through them.

The Throws of Spring

Its spring time
When beauty is released
Like a hand stitched
Patchwork masterpiece
Nature shows off
Her spring time finery
Spread like a throw
Over all you see

             soft, silken sunrise
             subtle, stitched, shimmering strands
             swallows singing songs

Mirror Mirror

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is she that's looking at me?
Perfectly imperfect stitched with good intentions
Yet when she looks in the mirror, all she sees is a blurred image....

Life As I Know It

Too many tears 
Have been shed 

Too many broken years 
Spent restless in bed 

Too many heartbreaks 
Unable to be stitched 

Too many headaches 
Have left my mind unhinged
Form: Rhyme

Dream Weaver

Forty years shopworn yet still taut, 
the past a seamstress rare 

Her words reknitted, stitched and purled
—to dress a future bare

Warmed By Wool

Stitched in yarns of neutral gray,
I fashion a robe from wool 
To cover me against icy breeze
And by donning a smaller size,
The wrap becomes a tight hug.

Edward

A red streak running till the kitties left alone
An Edward
Unfurled with the intent of being taken
A hole stitched with embroidery is an inevitable breakthrough
Patchwork belonging

Wrongly Stitched

They place their storms in my shaky hands 
stitched,tied and yet useful
Broken is I.
And for a while even the moon dims
no stitch is ever tied enough;
the loose threads forever stay

Lanterns-Or, Addiction's Self Portrait

A paper lantern of a girl;
Dim halo hazy, stitched thin by needlework.
A precision seamstress of darker dreams--
Freedom is a luxury, not
A privilege.

Moment - Living Forever

A Potential collapsed made by choice,
A Vibration only till a ear hears its noise,
A Universe forever changed by just one voice,
A Forever stitched with moments, lets rejoice.
