A break in the pattern

I need a break. I'm still finishing scarves created from left-over wool. They are colorful, whimsical, and quick to make. They make me happy. I'm working on a few rows of my life right now, instead, and it feels good. In the meantime, I am reworking a few poems from the past. Bear with me. I'll get back to more complex knitting in a week or so. The truth is, I don't like following patterns word-for-word.
