On My Doorstep

Premembered

Far be it for me to come between a woman and her knitting! But this cuddly teddy has been like this for weeks - as if it has come off worst in a fight with the family pet*.

Actually it has been abandoned. It lies unfinished in the sitting room. Everyday it calls out for some loving care. "I want to be finished! I want to be whole." it says (well, to me it does).

Perhaps it lies there as a reminder. Sometimes I feel like this. Unfinished. As if I have lost my stuffing, as if I am dismembered.

Perhaps if you shout loud enough my wife will hear you and teddy will be completed and he can start his journey to some deserving soul.

* We don't have a pet at the moment and it is starting to get to me!
