Needles Of Earth

Knit us back together 

Hold the needles in place 

Build our cities 

Out of wool 

And our trees of silk 

Use time as the spindle 

Create our cover 

From the darkness 

Criss Cross 

Pearl and knit 

Only a little bit 

Fix everything in one stitch 

Let the needles do the talking 

Before it's too late 

Before we become 

The land that they forgot

Love the cute piece,but these lines charm me most:
"Fix everything in one stitch
Let the needles do the talking
Before it's too late
Before we become
The land that they forgot "
