An ode to Zibeline Knits (with my apologies to Dr. Seuss)

I love to knit!

How I love to Knit!

I knit hats here,

I knit scarves there;

I'm knitting a sweater

-- its here somewhere...

I knit in blue,

I knit in red;

I even knit things in my head!

My friend she taught me how to knit

(I wanted socks ... she had a fit!)

She taught me how to knit those socks

do buttonholes and fancy knots,

sweaters, scarves, and dishcloths too.

(I know someone who knit a zoo!)

So now whenever I want to knit

I think of my friend and take a sit

I pick up my needles and her yarn

and marvel at its yarney charm

I sit and knit and think good things

instead of people who were mean.

I sit and knit and before me blooms

a cowl or shawl in lovely hues.

And as I knit I thank my friend

for sharing a joy

that never ends.
