The reason I wrote the previous poem is because I had to clean up the crap to find my missing orifice reducer. I was not successful. I'm sure I will find it once the new one arrives.
Ode to an Orifice Reducer
Oh orifice reducer, where hast thou gone?
Deep into the depths of the craft room,
Or lost on a voyage?
Prey to feline antics and under the fridge
Or playing peek-a-boo just beyond my field?
I long for the days we were together,
Happily supporting my wee flyer.
Whilst others jest at thy small bobbin capacity,
We managed to spin and ply myriad yarns.
Though I am in need of a replacement,
None will really take the place of you, happily
Heralding me into the time of the Jumbo Flyer,
We comfortably switched to and fro,
Crafting art yarns for display, and
Frog hair for lace.
From rough and lustrous longwool locks,
To camel silk bliss.
I will miss you orifice reducer.
Onward to send off for another like you,
Plastic and round,
Exorbitantly priced with added shipping.
Sniff.
