Knit capped Arabic woman
Cipher a needleless fir
As the wind hurries
Her branches over lead
Welded sun bleached blues
Crisp deep honey green
White streaked pinks form
Round mustard centers each
Storm’s breath carries work
Painter’s brush over salvaged
Triangles, sharp jagged bits
Make dark your words
Rhythm in beaded bracelets
Turquoise and ruby interruptions
Silver banded breaks to
Delicate cream thin wrists
