The Heaving Pile


We must downsize the family home
And clear the clutter that we own.
It's time to find a cosy pad,
Where we can be just Mum and Dad.


And so today, I made a start,
I tried to make some pretty 'art'.
I chopped a linen cloth in two
And made a mess with residue.


My hoarding ways have got to stop
Before the Mister blows his top.
I must reduce this heaving pile,
I may be gone for quite a while.


Crafty ways make heaving piles.

Don't go breaking my heart

I have been making love tokens like a woman possessed


and now our Valentine's market is cancelled!


I wouldn't mind but I don't even like Valentine's day


so I'm going to stop stuffing hearts (they are addictive)


and hope that all this love will keep warm for Mother's day.


Crafty ways can be altered.

I Made a Poem




I like making stuff,
And messing with glue.
I love to stitch and sew,
I like knitting too.

Don't forget crochet
And a little rhyme.
We need another verse
But I can't make time!


Crafty ways make poetic days.
