The Rhythm Of The Hook

I received this poem about crochet the other day via email from the Knit4charities group I belong to. Just had to share it

The rhythm of the hook
As it moves the yearn around

Calls to me in whispers

A sweet familiar sound


My hand moves almost dreamlike

Without a thought or care

As I fashion something new

for someone cold to wear


Perhaps a scarf or cap

Maybe a blanket too

With each and ever stitch

I think of more to do


So when the cold wind blows

My yarn helps me to remember

Forgotten people all around

I am the one who's blessed


As my warm has stitch away

I pray the rhythm of my hook

Will help someone

In some small way.
