Work Song Offering

4/4/2020

0 Comments

 
Quickly wrote a "Work Song Offering" for the sewers sewing masks. I do have an extremely simple tune written to it, but here are the words. Sewers can make up any tune to it, can sing the verses in any order, and also make up their own verses to go with it. "Coronavirus Sewers Work Song: An Offering" 
Plan plan plan
Take a seat
Today’s masks
Might not have pleats.

Cut cut cut
Up some cloth
With the thought:
No time for sloth.

Tie tie tie
Up the thread
With all hope,
No time for dread.

Stitch stitch stitch
To a song
With the hope
It won’t last long.

Sew sew sew
To a beat
With the hope
We soon can meet.

No time to think that
It’s not fair;
We sew these masks
Because we care.

    Essay Itches:
    This is not a typical blog. I might write about an itch I have over the news or from a floating idea in my mind.
