#wayoflife - Hello Poetry

The age of 12 I made my first Afghan 276 squares. Grannies taught me their wears Gave me scraps and skeins My Love of crochet remains Crochet a single thread A blanket Afghan to warm a bed One of a kind originals custom made Top grade yarn does not fade They taught me a single stitch. 50 years later, I have found my niche. Double crochet I’m on my way All the other stitches were child’s play Crochet a single stitch Learn the tension know the pitch I can look at any picture and make it Original item sight unseen Creative licensure if you know what I mean Crochet matrix, I see in my dreams Counting the stitches, blocking the seams Crochet a single thread and hook I taught myself how to read a pattern book The vast Spectrum of colors to the naked eye The beauty so vibrant it can make me cry Passion is not skin deep Much deeper into the psychic crochet creeps Color dances in the light Competing colors dual a fight Those are the colors that don’t seem quite right The color wheel never lies Crazy color matches defy Color never silent, has much to say Always willing to explore convey Weather in the light of day Or in the shadows of mutate Gray A ball of yarn socks to **** Crochet A single thread, From a concepts in your head Creativity, leaps, and bounds Every color can be found A sweater made commercial grade Pieces measured pattern devised Errors Correcting stitches revised Coming together before my eyes Yarn by color in bins to keep out the dust sit in the yarn room for inspiration a must When the colors speak to me I can set the pattern free I am the opposite of hidebound I am willing to try new concepts and ideas to keep me fresh and relevant That flexibility is heaven sent When I can see the finished product in my head Time to set out the colors on my bed Littler pieces, a crocheted beanie hat I make up as I go along. I can finish a hat in 20 minutes Approximately four to five country songs It’s as simple as that I have 125 finished hats preparing for the Christmas season Crocheting I don’t need a reason But it helps A lap throw sofa blanket made in three days The finish pattern will amaze Im fast and I make a product that will last. My crocheted items are made with love because my talent is a gift from up above BLT Webster’s Word of the day challenge August 10 Hidebound Someone or something described as hidebound is inflexible and unwilling to accept new or different ideas Inspired songs Somewhere over the rainbow by Judy Garland Footnotes I use crocheting to help alleviate my pain. If I’m hurting, I focus everything on the crochet stitch the line whatever it is. I’m working on finish this row put it all into the crochet preoccupy myself. I’ve done that for many years. That’s why I’m so fast dealing with the pain is a preoccupation.. If you’re gonna be hurting when you’re sitting down, you might as well be up and walking around preoccupy your time until the pain will let you go. It really gets me going to have a finish item that I would like to keep for myself. That’s how much I like it then I know I have a good product. It’s really hard for me to finish an item that somebody wants that is really ugly lol but the customer is always right. It’s hard for me to get excited about somebody else’s creation. I keep coming up with something new something fresh something different. It might be the same pattern and different colors but every pattern I have is an original in mine. The trim from this blanket the center of that blanket. I’ve even used modified lace doilies pattern and made them into a blanket. It came out fantastic. A lot of work, but it was worth it. Some blankets are so intricate. I wouldn’t do them again. I like taking baby blankets and making them when you’re watching TV and you don’t need a whole heavy blanket. You just need a lap throw perfect.
