warmth and textures
of colorful handmade
afghans and blankets
from Bethesda *
I wonder about the people
who made them
stitch-by-stitch . . .
and why they let them go
perhaps a move from
one home to another
and/or a ministry of love
like prayer shawls
a passing to another Place
perhaps . . .
knowing their art
will warm another
and needing no credit
imagine buying such a gift
for a few dollars
and on sale too

colder weather
time for my favorite coat
from a thrift store
Warmer weather takes time here, and I am still wearing my winter coat. Daffodils and primroses bloom near the house.
