Texture

Indebted I am to your gracious gifts.
Gleefully glad to breathe it all in.

Tulips
Sunny yellow; bright as bells.
gathered and bundled
On the mantle, the stories your blooms tell.

Geo Trax
stacked and piled
ready
no destination known

Add a noggin full of plans and dreams,
And off your twisting form is shown

Texture
How I need you?
Desperate, I am.
Wearing pants with rippled ridges
Fashion Fauxpaux Before Easter Committed
I pair textures not akin.
With ridges, I choose you, linen.
Loose, lax, and lovin' on my skin.

Locks dirty,
Not clean.
A crumpled concoction...
of a LONG ago washing.

Texture
You astound me.
You're everywhere I see.

The curvy swerves of flowers,
Patience.
As each year I wait for thee.
Transformations
Of what's old that now becomes new.

A Great Gram and her Grand Munchkins
Life's continuance.
God's promise.
A bloodline fresh and new.

New
~Our Mollye~
my niece
beautifully innocent
brilliantly blue
A birth and a blessing,
Our family's texture accrues.


Friends who become family.
Celebrating their little one's turn of a year.
Raising boys together with smiles and sometimes frowns,
Cups of sugar borrowed; backyard camp outs,
Texture...just a few doors down.

Fabric sorting.
Sifting through the scraps and collections of old,
Patterns, palettes, and preparations,
Making room for the new k.Mac story to be told.

A cake.
It's liquid chocolate smooth.
Whipped crystally goodness,
We dive into the richness and yummy goo.

A warm-up?
Perhaps prematurely baked?

Nah, it's just more texture,
To our family's dinner plate.

Years build.
Stack one and one on top.

This year.
I am blissfully grateful...
that my texture doesn't stop.

I will be the first to post and give all the answers away...I am super pleased with the texture of my hair as of late...not too curly...not near straight.

And my dear Aries...I do believe you might be #33 this week? Happy Day to you! So glad you were born.

I will post to the blog eventually, but headed to Nashville in the morn. Might be later tomorrow...

I love the balance I'm getting from God's grace of many things shaping my life of all textures.

Such a great giveaway! As far as the texture question goes...I'm enjoying (most days) the changing texture of my face...lines, crow's feet and all. I've worked really hard for each of them! :)

Well, looks like the #33 means that your birthday is coming up. Happy Birthday to ya! Hope it's one you'll always remember! I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for this giveaway! :)

Not quite sure about how to post you on my fb, but if you tell me how I will be glad to.
You are 33, and I will be in May, Yikes.
I am most pleased with the texture of my new baby's hair.
I need help! My add can't focus on anything on the blog. How could I see your products and fabric all together. Is is possible?

April said...

I'm off to add your giveaway link to my post for today!

I so need texture in my life so this is why I am entering. I guess at this time my favorite texture is probably my down comforter when you get to snuggle it up and go to sleep after a long day.

By the way- Hope you have a great and happy 33rd Birthday.
