‘mj yarns’ bag my brother found

for me to collect my little writings in

for i both write and knit

stories, scarves, poems, pendants

sayings and sweaters

he brought the bag up my hill

to leave it on the stand by my chair

without explanation

then hurried away and wouldn’t

say even when i caught him

it took me a minute after his car

left the driveway to see and chuckle

he’s never asked about it since
