Master Weaver - Poem
Master Weaver
Cast adrift waves of conscious thought
Amid the sea of sound and color
Peering through the window of time,
Night cascades from gray to black
Drawn by a silence so sublime,
Her pensive eyes stare into darkness
Sinking deeper into reverie
Hours slip through her fingers
No effort is ever wasted,
And charmed by her patient devotion,
She is guided by the hand to infinity
Surrendering body and soul,
To passions that consume her whole
Muses gather in swarms and lie down as lovers
Awaiting their beloved to open the door
And rendezvous with the fisher kings of old
Pulling sword from stone
She rides the wings of Pegasus
And kicks open the fountain of life
Sipping wildly the drippings of the rosy flower
She threads the needle on forty-five
And carves the word play of thoughts that travel her way
On loose parchment sheets of milky white
Messengers of love flow from her heart,
Carefully weaved to penetrate your soul,
Bleed into your dreams and fantasies
And open endless skies
Love as a flower is a tender thing,
But don't let that fool you
As the rose yields to the lusty bee
Amid the fields of gold and green,
So, must the bee embrace its thorns
Tis the way of the Master Weaver,
Her heart the seed of endless potentialities
Crushed by earth and scorched by fire,
Drowned in tears and forged by her will and desire.
