The sea, the surge & the seamstress

As your heart lays upon the shores of forgotten hours & torn time... let the cotton comfort...yards & yards of soft patterns..waiting to be loved...many colors of string wash upon the shore that can help you mend... so take heart...& a needle & your favorite colored string...let the surge sweep over the edges...& take what life that was torn & wear it again..

You really have the soft feminine touch when you want to. And the ability to add the right words as well to enhance the feeling.
Quite a unique gift.
In many ways I'm envious.
