Antiquated
Old, no longer shapely, but warm and comfortable
with stretched out sleeve ends, that hang mid-hand
in reach of cold fingers that tug, and curl up, and into
the tightly woven, brown and gold, knitted thift find.
A give away, left abandoned on a rack of good will but
destined to become a well loved relic, appreciated
for the aged attributes used as criteria for it's rejection.
Antiquated.
Value, and worth, restored by it's selection.
