A woman sits
working her hook,
moving the yarn,
crocheting
the patterns of life.
The center is the womb
of the Goddess
out of which
flows creation.
Flowers bloom
taking their energy from the womb,
and one sees
many creations
which have been brought forth.
Paths take shape
taking their energy from the womb,
and one sees
many roads
to many places.
A woman sits
working her hook,
moving the world,
crocheting
the patterns of life.
