Fabrics of Words

Fabrics of Words

We are the weavers, the weavers of words…
Our tools in trade are inventive pens in hand
With these tools we create yards of unique blends
as colorful threaded words are created from within
and woven into the fabric of our creative world. 

We are the weavers, the weavers of words…
With closely woven strands of soul we spin our wares
Blending from our senses and lifes golden threads
Some soft, some rough, some marked with tears
All found in the cloths of our creative world.

We are the weavers, the weavers of words…
We ply our trade on the eyes of like minds
We spin our verse yards and send them soaring
across the miles of wires and signals sharing
our art with other writers weaving words

Joann Grisetti February 3, 2013 at 2:25 PM I like the comparison of poet to weaver, and the way you have used a refrain to duplicate the intricate patterns produced by weavers. Lovely.

Robert Johnson February 3, 2013 at 1:06 PM Mysteries woven deep within make up the fabric of where we've been. To get to share them with mirrored souls. Is how we survive when the bell tolls. Keep sowing good vibes Debra. :)

Carrie Richards February 1, 2013 at 8:48 AM I love this phrase, is if a fabric of woven words, threads of our life, threads of our experience written in a lovely poem. Nicely done, Debra!
