STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
(a shadorma)

Each stitch was
carefully placed, yet
the pattern
was ignored.
Weeping, she realizes
it is time to rend.

Inspired by Margo Roby’s Tuesday Poem Tryouts and Carry On Tuesday’s Prompt #196 (to use the opening line of Eric Clapton’s song “Let it Grow”): Standing at the Crossroads. Also posted for day 10 in 100 Days of Spring – 2013.
