Knit Knot Tree

Artwork by Jafabrit

Nancy and I are submitting pieces to go into the Yellow Springs Story Box and I decided to make a piece that shows Nancy’s poem on the back.

Thank You Tree

Blessed be this gentle tree

That patiently allows The knitted swag of knotted loops

Upon it’s graceful bows.

A strange conceit to dress a tree,

When in good time

It’s own sweet leaves

Will gown it with such splendor.

It’s not the dress

But the tree

That causes all the wonder.

Blessed be this gentle tree.
