Poetry ... Words in Motion

Woven Meanings . . .

There are threads of many colors

woven to a certain beat ...

over, under, over, under.

They are gently combing in the woven fiber,

to create a beautiful and intricate design.

Simple rhythms become life's gentle beating

I am a Tapestry Weaver

taking the time to weave

each and everyday;

coming full circle after many years away.

Inching slowly up the warp of the loom

A beautiful fabric is forming before me

Tapestry weaving is teaching me daily,

guiding me to a slower pace of life.

My fingers guide the weft fibers

along their woven way.

I have returned home here . . .

here just sitting at my loom.

This loom in my studio is a hundred years old.

 I often wonder where she has been,

and who wove here before me.

It might be something I will never know.

So for now I will channel it's weavers before me,

cherishing each and every woven row.

Woven Meanings

applied to my daily life journey ...

The sturdy Warp I weave upon

is the foundation I walk with each day.

The Threads of many colors and textures

are the experiences and people along my life's way
