Woodsy

......................................................................................
I belong to Ook's series

I was born from several balls of yarn,
pure angora, mohair, wool, cotton, acrylic and nylon,
from beige, green, brown, orange, pink and ochre colors
and as well as a 1# hook.
I'm 7"1/2 high when I stand up, and 5"1/2 sitting.
I'm fully jointed with disks and screw bolts and padded with polyfill.
My eyes are beautiful german ochre glass eyes with black pupil.
My nose is embroidered with a garnet cotton thread.
the claws of my pads
are embroidered with a light green cotton thread.
I'm wearing a long hat crocheted from a pink cotton thread
and a necklace made of several strands of glass beads
some silk fabric and dry chestnus bur.

I'm out of the wood, like the tiny imaginary critters
who are living in tales. I could be asleep in the cosy moss,
down an old and wise tree which would blow to me
a fantastic fairy story, or being coiled up under a big mushroom,
waiting for the metamorphosis of a worm to a butterfly.
I'm just born from the delicate colors of the forest,
and from the tasty smell of the heady vegetation.

I'm living with Karen who adopted me.
