coming together, moving apart
in miles.

a daily habit.

a luxury, to have time
to check, doubly,

soft stuff wool
unless is tapestry,
lasts a life time.

they say.

knitted, it needs
flattening, pinning
in squares.

blotting out bullies
and other unecessary
items.

about the old garden. the men
who felled the trees, lowered the terraces,
months of noise, clatter, tan llan.

change can be a surprising

thing.
