A very nice message. I hope you have a lot of silver thread. There is a lot of mending to do in this world. I think kit would be nice if you had some help with this project.

What a pity I don't have six stars left for your lovely poem. I enjoyed your thoughtful write about the needle piercing the coldest hearts, and silver thread to sew up broken hearts and tears. And the delightful ending: well done, good and faithful servant.
Best wishes for your entry.
Wendy

This brought to mind that old favorite country song, "Silver Threads and Golden Needles"--

Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette, if I remember correctly.

You morphed the title a bit and gave it a beautiful faith based theme...

This world could use some mending!

Very Interesting. Your poem reminds me of the country song "Silver Threads And Golden Needles". It was recorded by singer Linda Ronstadt.

A well crafted poem that is suggestive In the toil and wear in the sweatshop of life. God has given us something rare.

Sparkling in this poem:
-Wonderful rhymes.
-introspection, imagery, nice flow.
-Great metaphors
-Skillful hand, an informed eye.
-nicely structured stanzas.

We are God's creation, the powers that heal are far greater than choice silver.

Lovely, healing and refined messages, illustrative of devotion, and of the work of skilled craftsmen. An interesting picture you paint of textile industry, harmonizing history and faith--that we are crafted in God's hands.

Of course one of the songs I sung, while we feeding the poor on Sunday nights, was "silver threads and golden needles". So I can relate most kindly to your fabulous rhyming poem. Yes indeed, God can repair all our crimson garment's tears and rips. This is beautifully written dear friend, go luck, blessings Roy
