| Posted by Joan Serratelli on 06/19/07 at 07:16 PM I agree! I would LOVE a hug to wear! Great write; very sweet and tender. Loved your description. |
| Posted by Rhiannon Jones on 06/19/07 at 11:48 PM Must agree..."a hug you can wear" is a nice closure. I was caught up by "...rhythmic and soothing/the gentle scrape/of bamboo/the soft slither/of wool"...gotta go find my knitting needles :-) |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 06/21/07 at 02:30 AM A favorite!! Just delightful. I loved "the soft slither of wool through the fingers" and the ending is so endearing - "as stitch by tiny stitch
my love is transformed
into a hug
you can wear"

You have captured it perfectly; I felt warm and fuzzy, like I was in one of those fuzzy hugs. A favorite, for sure! - RCat |
