Why I Like to Make Lace By Noelene Lafferty In today's busy world Where life is one rush And it seems to me speed is the norm - When people can't stop To hear a bird sing Or thrill to a thundery storm -
In a quiet little nook Just my own little space I like to make time that's just mine - With pillow and thread And pattern all pricked And bobbins all neatly in line. There's something so good To place thread over thread And slowly see lines making sense To cross and to twist And to put up a pin And forget all about feeling tense. So when pressure is on I retire from the world Leaving troubles behind in my wake To create something of beauty So calming and quiet And marvel at what I can make.
