Tapestry

This knot..... A second of your time This colour........ a thought This ongoing composition, your time here, your doing, your volition Live your life as a tapestry Each knot, a thread in time Each colour, light or not This composition ..... sublime This colour of thought The knots you sought This winding thread, easy to break Together they hold On the paths you tread This tapestry you unfold This emerging picture of time, this colour The fullness of your knot, a little less duller, if your thoughts, are sublime Winding thread, this image spread The pattern knots and colour, on lifes' satin Gold and silver knots Precious seconds This tapestry unravelling your thoughts, colour, travelling Tapestry, every knot a precious second every colour, a thought Tapestry, our lives caught Shown for all, every thought laid Tapestry, our lives displayed This composition, our lives, our volition Deepening colour play The richness in your time Tapestry, woven through, winding thread The things you do, the things you say The life you want to portray

Such an impressive, smooth flowing write Matthew. I love it! I love the whole concept behind. I woven tapestry of one's life. I added this one to my favorites.
