Madrona
I am back from Madrona and feeling decidedly blech but I have to be at work anyway. In a nutshell, here is my wrap up. Some people got to hear me actually read it aloud, but it summed things up so well for me that I thought that I would share it with all of you. I will post pictures soon. I promise.
Fiber is Being Energizingly Resplendant.
Meeting friends
At
Dusk, knitting
Round after round
Over countless cups,
Not caring
About the time.
Fondly wandering
In and among
Booths stacked with
Everything needed,
Relishing every moment.
Fibery goodness
Everywhere
Showering me with
Thoughts and
Ideas with alarming
Variety and clarity
All of them
Lovely.

Love the poem it sums up our knitters guild camps here as well. Nothing better than being able to knit uninterrupted and relax in good company

I enjoyed the initial reading, and I'm so happy to be re-read and enjoy at my leisure.
Thank you!
