Musical mill melody

Musical mill melody

#napowrimo #loom #mill #northern #england #music

The threads of the cloth

come together in harmony

as warp and weft

click and clack

line by musical line

each bit of the tune

brought by the shuttle

as click follows clack

and “rat a tat tat”

flows flamenco style

as the needles embroider

the cloth with rhythmic timing
