Untangled!

in #poetry8 years ago

Hello Steemit!

She had a million wishes

In the knots of her tangled stitches

Besides her lay a pot she called Luck

To help her make a little buck.

Odd jobs called her across the alley

With the rich who would not dilly dally

Bread was offered with a bowl of vowels

And a string of words to sing while mending towels.

Steady but slow she mastered the pen

Yarns and yarns she would spin in her den

“Oye ragged writer” they called her

Only now she wore patch less dresses wrapped in fur.
