Blue Sewing Notions ~*Marge Tindal*~ Threads in a basket not yet used wrapped on spools and bobbins waiting the needles' eye to weave the magic of a tapestry of friendship Snippets of eyelet lace that should have decorated a quilt of our yesterdays A button or two I could have used to close the gap between us before the cushion of pain grew too ~ ~ u n r a v e l l e d ~ A package of mending tape that perhaps could have hemmed the bridge of our unraveling Taped measures of just how far we'd drifted apart Pins of pain attach themselves to a small cushion of safety A thimble of tears I shed at the scissoring of our memories As I lay out the pattern I realize I'd make a lousy seamstress |

I dunno...I think you have this one sewn up well. Very creative, and touching write. I love what you can do with just a little thread...  TD |

Hi, Marge. What a lovely little shape, tied up in a pretty little thread. Very nice... John xo I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

oh how we wish we could have done some things differently in our lives! This is an amazing reflection, laced together with rich metaphor...I loved it and love your design, flowing and precise. Well done, as usual. write on, writergrl "You cannot stain a black coat." |

Thank you all ... such a simple thought that came from going through an antique sewing cabinet left to me ... the thread seemed to wind it's way around the objects in the cabinet and I merely had to stitch them together~ I soooooooo appreciate each kind reply~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
