Caught in an unexpected snow drift
in my plumsweater
I thought of how to get a hold of my
friends... and thought of email letters
I’d ask them to bring me a shovel.
.
The wind was howling and I wish
it would stop.  the sweatersyarnstitches
were snug and i expected the sweater to
keep my heat loss to a minimum.
.
Now you get my drift...it’s quite the plum yarn
that I expected the wind to stop, and letters
to fly through cyberspace for friends to appear
with a shovel.
.
My mom had made the sweater, that kept us in
stitches as she told the yarn of
Donn Fendler,  “Lost on a Mountain”
… a true story of a boy in Maine.
