Ninebarrow - The PInner

Hour after hour
The Pinner sits in her room
With her one tallow candle
She works in the gloom
She works with an aching
Even spring can’t dispel
The best in the county
All but one she will sell

Each day she runs
At the setting of the sun
With a hope in her heart
As the shadows grow long
To the chapel she goes
Past the fields and the barn
And she offers the stone
The best of her charms

Day after day
She takes brass wire and bone
Coiling and honing
She works on alone
She works with a fever
As the seasons they spin
Each day she’s hoping
For that one perfect pin

Year after year
The Pinner grows old
Failing eyesight and fingers
Her pins go unsold
Her pins go unsold
And they fill up that room
Filling bottles and boxes
As the copper turns blue
