Nothing like midnight to get your creative juices flowing

Amazing Lace - Challenge 3 - the poem

MY GIFT TO YOU

I cast a little spell in the start up row

You can’t really see it, it's very small

Should you ever get confused and don’t know what to do

That spell will guide you

I wove a little magic into row fifty five

And even when you wash it, it wont’ come out

I found it in the street one day when it glinted in the sun

Use it wisely, I think it’s powerful

I hid a little giggle somewhere near the end

A childish one, a cheeky one, one you might hear in a playground

And some days when it seems a bit overwhelming

I hope you hear that little giggle and it makes you smile

I shed a little tear somewhere in there too

Because some days you might feel like no-one cares

And I want this tear to tell you

That I care, and that if you cry then so do I

So when you wear this thing

Or hold it in your hands and feel how soft it is

Remember it isn’t really delicate, it’s as strong as a river

And that I love you
