Spinning Yarns

Fire burning, keeps me warm
While outside brews a big snowstorm 
Now all I need to be complete 
Are knitted socks upon my feet

I thought I'd have them on by now
I'd knit my own but don't know how
Will you teach me how someday?
We'll stay in bed and knit away

An afternoon spent spinning yarns
Of different colors into forms
I think the way I'd like to start 
Is knitting you a small red heart 

A place to put your hot coffee
To rest your mug on comfortably 
My first attempt, it may take long
Don't laugh though if I get it wrong

I want to do the things you do
So I can spend more time with you
I'm pretty good at crafting rhymes
But other things? I'm dense at times

Be patient please, I'll come along
It's like the learning of a song
Note by note, chord by chord
Verse by verse, word by word

I'll get it though, it sounds like fun
Teacher-student, one on one
Needles, patterns, knits and purls
My heart knit for a special girl
