It’s Christmas
and I’m having fun;
it’s Christmas
and I’ve just begun:
a tangle of zippers
up ahead
by plastic drawers
of colored thread,
Formica tables
shoved to the wall
and piles of fabrics
about me are sprawled.
There are denims and satins
In green, red, and gold,
and African cottons
with patterns so bold.
The clinking whir
of my sewing machine
joins jolly carols
in a cheery stream
of sound and action
as projects unfold
and cinnamon-apple tea
steams in a bowl.
It’s Christmas
and I’m having fun
crafting gifts for everyone!
