Cunning Farmer
reared many rabbits by habit
to harvest cotton wool from them
for textile industries abroad
that they could make winter clothing
for charity to hot desert dwellers...

Warp and Woof of Universe

life's tapestry:
neat surface - chaos below -
not Chinese needlepoint

life, death, light, dark, cycles:
universal tapestry...

My Ancestors slogged in Scottish bogs
Washing wool for the textile folds
And dancing with the spinning jenny’s
Apparently, there were some English blokes 
That I can count among my folks
Well what do you know and what was the chance
Someone hailed from Normandy France
Add to these a lady of the Peloponnese
And this makes up ninety eight percent of me...

orange ginger twirl

atop
a garden wall

striped marmalade throw

feline
lazy time
under sunshine

interlaced visions
a weaving

paws dangle in indolent ease
reach
underlay deep

whiskers sense sparrows
muscles tense in their plush
carpet shag
then
drowsy textile head slumps

sun-drying kitty-mat
basking

2 textured images twilled
to fade together forever

later

cat-rug carried away ~

sun settles in a deckchair

The Wardrobe 

I opened the wardrobe door 
There they hang, suits and trousers
worn so long, looking pale

I gave my old clothes to the Salvation Army
Too much textile is a burden  
In a suitable shop, I bought a pair of jeans 
and a matching jacket
Feeling adventurous, I walked out looking
For a mule, horses are too tall, began
Exploring the landscape of dreams

I took pattern making autumns ago
I measured and cut a bodice to sew 
A vintage cocktail dress trimmed with mojo
Louie Fifteen Courts would never forgo                                                                   
I’m dressed to the nines and nowhere to go
Aha, of course, there’s a chic fashion show 
It’s a full house, the theme: “Haute Escato” 
Awed by the finale I yell bravo! 
Home watching YouTube, with chips and merlot...
