Buh-sun

To give a buh-sun a pointy nose
prepare a pulling thread,
to make the pair symmetrical
fold shims oppositely
before turning them
 right side out.
Their shape fits into
go-moo-shin just right.
Mom patches scraps from elders
colorful striped sleeved jacket
made for my youngest brother.
Mom’s magic hands
create endlessly
Table cover, wrapping cloth,
spoon ’n chopstick case
and a beautiful bed spread.
