December 2017
Stasia is the curator,
Oscillating between her
New York accent
and Canadian ways
Joy is the architect,
rebuilding the framework of her life
with her bare hands
Rebecca is the hip local,
our tour guide and hostess
her fluttering hands offer decadent cheeses
along with excellent advice
Krista is the philanthropist,
as she wrestles with what is hers to keep
and what she should give away
Jessie is the photographer
tonight
and the one giving directions,
which we gratefully obey
And I am the knotted author,
trying to untangle the emotional cords
that pull me in too many directions
Let me remember
where I see knots
you see a knitted blanket
of warmth and connection
