Seamstress
by June Nash
.
Seamstress sits in chair
Other’s clothes repair
While dressed in old rags
Of good deeds she brags
.
It tears at her heart
When they fall apart
Her family and friends
Their ailments must mend
.
Takes thread from her soul
To make others whole
Creating a run
In own fabric spun
.
Takes no time to darn
Repairing the harm
Stays a wee bit frayed
Her peace for theirs trade
.
Until a mere rag
Across own rips sag
Seamstress sits in chair
Other’s woes repair
