I am knitting these peacock socks for you
in the cradle of the Beara Reeks
weaving into them the rain off the Atlantic
and the scent of honeysuckle off the hedgerows
while I yarn about babies born elsewhere
and blankets destined to find them
and talk of a herd of alpacas
brought here for their fleece
their long necks straining for home
and hoping as I knit and purl this Beara blend
to mend your broken heart
