Trying Best To Untangle the Goldsmiths Weave List

One passing day come the end of March
just before or after I now can barely
remember as so far back was it

The clock's jumped forward or went
back to either summer or fall

Whilst sat in front of my old trusted
spinning Jenny after checking my
kaleidoscope of cotton tops were
affirmative and ready

Patiently threaded the eye of every
needle then took 1 final look at
the clock hanging upon the wall 

As was I wanting to untangle and spin
a goldsmith's weave I was formally told

So deeply and intrinsically I detached
meditated and relax with each inhale
of breath

Then placed both of my hands and
faith upon the wheel transfixed
ever further by it's singing spin

As searching was I for any form
or sign of a God for me to believe
in or in did he exist

And after I do not or can recall
over how many hours it took

Whence upon I looked down
what lay before me

Was a patchwork quilt of technicolor
rainbow interwoven sky

Some colours the likes of which I
had never seen since or before nor
have the cotton for 

So all I know to this day in regards to
the question does God exist

Is simply this

When you see something as divine
and spectacular as a rainbow
in all it's technicolor majesty and
ethereal glory in the sky

Knowing that it was created by
something far greater than the
realms and possibilities of man

And you choose have faith and believe
that entity to be called God 

Who you can count on and lean on 
and pray to help you make sense of
the true meaning of life

Then I for 1 hope and pray the pot of
gold you metaphorically seek at the
end of your own individual rainbow

Is God's everlasting grace and love
and the heaven you so seek as you 
deservedly made the list
