Ode To My Sweater

A Winter Fashion Villanelle

Ode To My Sweater

Sweater weather is my favorite time of year.

Softness and warmth seeps deep into my soul.

My face says it all, a smile from ear to ear.

Feels like a hug from teddy bear, so dear.

Or Like a lover’s embrace that envelopes my body whole.

Sweater weather is my favorite time of year.

Merlot wool, cashmere, alpaca, cotton all so premier.

A feeling of coziness when out for a chilly stroll.

My face says it all, a smile from ear to ear.

It’s the cardigan sweater that’s in my gear.

To close or not to close the edges of yarn so fine, I love that control.

Sweater weather is my favorite time of year.

If am a clashing disaster, let me be clear,

I don’t care if my sweater mismatches, no reason for fashion patrol.

My face says it all, a smile from ear to ear.

I could make a life of sweater wearing, a full-time career.

My sweater stays with me forever, even if it has a hole.

Sweater weather is my favorite time of year.

My face says it all, a smile from ear to ear.

    Who doesn't like a cozy sweater or even a blanket that is crocheted.

  • Cleverly done... it has such a cosy, comforting feel.
