Knitting is perhaps one of the best things I’ve ever chosen to learn. So much of me goes into a handmade piece. Sorrow, joy, contentment, pleasure, wonder…but mostly, calm.
On days when I feel I am unable to handle life, I knit. It’s a simple pleasure that is beyond measure. May you find a pastime that feels you with peace and a reassurance that calms your soul.

Friendship Garden
In your heart there is a garden
reserved for friends
a garden to which you lovingly tend
growing beautiful flowers
whose petals will carpet
their pathway with power
and bring light
when day chills, like night
they’ll be your loving shove
a universal nudge
a cosmic sign from up above
and your friends they will grow
such a garden for you
raising flowers of every height and hue
using those petals that you once threw
to make new
a never ending give and take
such support this boundless soil will make
don’t neglect it, don’t forsake
what a beautiful thing
that garden creates.
