Needle And Pins

I thought about you, Jahnay when Riles and I were reading tonight. One thing we read were poems from Falling Up by Shel Silverstein. Needles and Pins reminded me of the first story you shared with me that you wrote.

Needles and Pins

Needles and pins,
Needles and pins,
Sew me a sail
To catch me the wind.

Sew me a sail
Strong as the gale,
Carpenter, bring out your
Hammers and nails.

Hammers and nails,
Hammers and nails,
Build me a boat
To go chasing the whales.

Chasing the whales,
Sailing the blue,
Find me a captain
And sign me a crew.

Captain and crew,
Captain and crew,
Take me, oh take me
To anywhere new.
