Sewing Frenzy

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!
