88. I Love .... hand sewing.

Finger sewing,
my friend in Newfoundland calls it.

It can actually get me
out of bed,
early and enthusiastically,
to think that I have some
hand sewing
waiting for me.

I find it 
relaxing, meditative.

You can quietly accomplish something,
with so little.
So little materials and tools,
so little fuss and mess,
so little movement and activity.

I sit quietly
with music
or my books
or my thoughts.

I work away
and stitch by single stitch,
something is
born.
