For the love of scarves


I love scarves.
I was first introduced to scarves two years ago, two years ago tomorrow to be exact.
I went to Europe and had a fabulous time.
I noticed that everyone was wearing scarves.
I wanted one, so I bought two.
Did you know that scarves have a purpose besides looking great?
They actually keep you super warm! 
Who would have known.
Scarves, where have you been all my life??
Now I have a nice collection of scarves.
I love the winter when I can wear them.
I am a proud scarf wearing girl.

I wanted to find a fun poem about scarves, but there weren't really any.
But I did find this poem about winter, and that's almost as good. :)
Actually, this poem really touched my heart and made me feel all warm and cozy, just like a scarf.

A Warm Winter Adventure

A walk through the winter dusk,
Still air, clear sky.
Breathe deeply: clean and crisp,
Still mind, clear mind.

All is calm yet I'm not alone,
Fragrant, warming.
All is here with me and you,
Silvering, shining.

I can feel something new,
Wiser and all-knowing.
I can see all that is truth,
Together and forming.

Can this really be certain,
That I can see all things?
Clear sky, fragrant warmth, your eyes…

To have dreamt and seen us.
