Best Loom Poems

Transform me...

weave me slowly
into the silky essence
of ecstasy ~

spellbinding are your stirring threads
of silver and gold -
rich is your tapestry of tender tendrils --

and sacred is the union
of our
tantra breaths

Dearest, why cry in vain to the black night 
fight its gentle intent to hold and rest. 
Why fear the loss of light thus malcontent? 
When ego is so false upon the loom. 

Dearest, what makes you think elation found
from harsh light will so frame...

The Loom of Breksta

Quivering tongues writhe and race
Whispers fortell her cool embrace
Her touch so soft a gentle breeze
A pleasing caress to russel the leaves

The land reborn before my eyes
Filled with dark and foreign skies
An offer come to set me free
My heart to pound, my mind...

Nightmare strums the Loom

A dream I guess perhaps it was
I seemed a child at play
An angry father did appear
His temper foul that day

You let the dog kill the cat
He loudly said to me
Grabbing the dog 
And it went splat
Little dog he died you see

I was...

Hope for richly resonant peaceful warmth
wraps perfectly and mutually redeeming moments
correlatively weaving absorbent straining ropes
woofing full wefted tapestry
through subtly suggestive tipping points
predicting dissonantly ruddered resolutions,
transitioning shuttering events,
prophesying regenerate Tree of Life RootSystems

Crowning eco-nomially balanced appositional branches
reaching up toward radiant light's Source
stretching out for full-round octave...

Land Is A Loom
I sailed the fiord like inlets between Powell River and Drury Inlet.
The land itself  spoke from mountains, torents, islet
From bird song and bear splashing fishers
From rutting moose and cougars sharp incisors.
The place has a scale that needs no advisers
But in our...

The roaming minutes encircle my thoughts
As I delve romantically into the possibility of falling
My associations, they tend for the lift
When my vicarious aberrations cause a pigs tail in their midst
Yet their overworn malicious grin tends to me a harrowing mystique dealt subsequent
Therein, in lieu of...

Mathematical nirvana one after another forms a link
Together they are in sync
Of understanding they are at brink
They go as far as the mind can think

The neural flame expands the brain
Math by it spawned is next link in a chain 
The loom of light creates treads...

“Jesus speak unto my heart, with your calm serenity.
Your joyful presence all about, sets my mind at ease.
Guide me with divine direction, a blessing given me.
With inspiration light my path, so my eyes can see.

Jesus to you I draw closer, as my spirit you set...

Weaving Our Robes From An Old, Broken Loom

In this cold world, naked and helpless born
With coming sorrow expressed in first cries,
Soon fed false dreams and other useful lies,
Ever seeking more to oneself adorn.

In falling flight as a broken wing hawk,
Our sad dead bodies, not yet...

Poems Like to Loom

So should I be pleased with the presumption
You could call this conspicuous consumption
How long would you have to rattle a sabre
After learning wife had just gone into labor.

I finally have forgotten all the furious fuss
When they discovered I was ambidextrous
And if I...
