The Song of the Singer

I promised when I began this blogging business to include bits from various family members. Here is a "sound poem" written by Heather.











“The Song of the Singer”
By Heather Lacey

Silently the Singer
Sits upon the stage.
I lower the presser foot,
The needle to engage.

I push down on the pedal.
The singer starts to hum.
I guide the fabric carefully,
And watch out for my thumb!

Swish goes the fabric,
As the needle keeps the beat.
Snip! Snip! I cut the thread.
My song is now complete.
