Tale of a UFO It beckoned me from hiding In a book I'd put aside. "I'm just so beautiful you see and begging to be tried."
I know I've got the thread for it Stashed in my special drawer I think I've got the bobbins Or should I buy some more? Now first prepare the pricking - All other tasks can wait And wind the bobbins gleefully (I task I sometimes hate). Oh joy, there is a pillow free It only needs a dusting Gather pins and cloth and such Hurry, time's a wasting! -------- Is that the time already? Good grief, how time does fly! I've already done an inch or two Just to see how threads will lie. Can't wait for tomorrow When basic chores are done And I can sit and lace in peace I'm having so much fun! ----------- I've done a fair few inches now The pattern's not so hard In fact it's kind of boring To do it by the yard. Maybe if I had a break And came back later on I know there's jobs I ought to do And my inspiration's gone --------------- I really ought to do some more It really is quite nice But first I'll have to retro lace I can see I've done that twice! ---------------- I'm sure there should be more of this I've got the pattern beat. But it seems to take forever Just to manage one repeat. --------------------- And now there is another piece I've just got to do, you know. And this old piece gets put aside It's another UFO!
