How to Choose a Scarf

A scarf warms, wraps, hold your head fondly in its hands. A good scarf will take care of you and hide you. You are safe inside it. Safe and warm.

Find colours that make you think fondly of the earth, or remind you of slow walks in dim light. Choose one from the many, even if there are hundreds like it. Name the scarf. Give it a name worthy of a dear friend. Tell it two secrets. This is your scarf.

There is no other scarf like your scarf. Sleep with it beside your face, and weep into it. It will weep back, and you will know the depths of scarf love.
