Hi fellow Arachnids, Thank you so very much for the kindness of our Arachne lacemakers who send the poem on to me. It is another delightful poem and I will add it to my collection of lace-poems (most of which are Noeleneâs.
Also my thanks and admiration for Noelene who can pen such lovely pieces. -----Original Message----- From: Noelene Lafferty Sent: Friday, November 20, 2015 2:07 AM To: 'Vickie Green' ; lace@arachne.com Subject: RE: [lace] Christmas bobbins 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.
