1 You’re everywhere around me, you surround me, you know me.   I know you well because I feel you on my body: you warm, silky, and can be smooth.   You’re benign at night, you under me: you poke me and touch me: you’re the friend we all familiar with.   2. You’re on the Christmas cake, you decorate it well: you’re strawberry, chocolate, mint and vanilla.   3. You’re unable to discriminate between races and genders: you’re also on Kings and Queens.   I know you well because I see you on railings, you drape yourself beautifully among empty hands: you’re multicoloured, decorative and crayonic.   I recognise you fully, since you’re in cars, planes and trains: you the twist we can’t do without: the leather that cushions everything.   4. You’re incomparable to leather: you found draped on dresses, for dresses.   5. On birthday cakes you can be numbered, or just an outline – like geometry and trigonometry.   6. You’re found everywhere, before or behind me: you can even make the sky turn grey- “by that I mean ‘pictures’.”   I know you, because you found on parks; and street corners -- you can even be the rag left for ones temperament.   7. On New Years presents, you’re found on gifts, and muffins.   I recognise you well, since you’re always on my mind: I wonder about natures creations, since you’re also part of the trees.   8. You’re everywhere around me, you surround me, you know me.   I recognise you from the way you can sway in the wind: you soft, wavery, and can be textured.   You’re malignant at heart, you warm inside: you cover us, protect us: you’re the stranger we aware of.   9. You have known chemistry: in carpentry you’re defined, you’re straight and curly.   You’re known by geography: in cut-out spaces you’re measured and adjusted.   Your biology is a mystery – you vary, differ and in varieties of dimensions.   10. I know you well, you’re the friend we all aware of, but when will the threads bewilder us.
