We didn’t really know what to say here, so we’d like to make both your and our browsing time more enjoyable with this charming poem by Jan Brzechwa:
Thread and Needle Spun a Waltz
Thread and needle spun a waltz,Needle – smoothly, thread with faults.
Needle’s moves hit perfect angles,The thread always gets a tangle.
Needle leaps for thread to follow:“Oh, you’re agile as a swallow!”
Needle whirls into tight stitch,Dashing by – thread follows each.
Needle’s up, thread’s to the side,Needle’s eye is open wide.
Nimble, fast, fit as a fiddle,’Oh,’ the thread gasps, 'what a needle!’
And so they danced to setting sun,Until the dress was sewn and done.
