What a green scarf says

 

This scarf is wide, long and warm.

The width elicits surprise yet

it was made with certain deliberation.

It is for one that is tall

and lives where snow falls

and wind blows during 

long days.

A scarf that is warm,

able to wrap long around

neck, face, keeping cold out.

Long, thick, wide ~ echoing 

my wish for you to be covered,

safe, warm, protected, saved.

Green for beauty, 

for the hope of Spring to come again,

for sunshine. 

Green brown for tree trunks beauty,

the fading leaf with the promise

of more to come again;

brown for good clean dirt for planting,

for trees and peonies.

This scarf has the words

I love you

knitted in it over, and over, and over.

It is of trees, flowers, warmth and reminders of spring 

in the midst of a cold, long winter.

 

Ravelry here.
