A Tapestry For the Lord

A poem dedicated to the Lord !

A TAPESTRY FOR THE LORD .

Let us weave our life’s tapestry , -
Like some exquisite work of art ,
By choosing the right colored threads ,
Right from the very start !
With patience , good deeds and prayers ,
And by seeking His blessings too ;
Let us weave our colored tapestry ,
With threads of multi-colored hues !
With all our tears of joy and sorrow ,
And our various losses and gains ,
Laced with golden threads of love , -
A woven masterpiece shall remain !
For only that woven tapestry ,
Which resembles a true work of art ,
Shall adorn the Lord’s chamber ,
As a thanksgiving from our heart !

                                      -Raj Nandy
