Sometimes I think there is an inner earth, that spins all widdershins to what we know; and smoothly from within its spheric berth, creates enchantments in our world of woe. I almost hear the distaff and the wheel and see the golden threads that are there spun; as if the tapestries of life are real and magic woven into every one. The mural of one's life does take its turns; one section, all bright colours,- next of dark. The concept of these things within me burns as I perceive the meaning of the spark. Our tapestries are dark where we're alone and brightest where the light of love has shone.

Tapestry (A Sonnet)
Sometimes I think there is an inner earth, that spins all widdershins to what we know; and smoothly from within its spheric berth, creates enchantments in our world of woe. I almost hear the distaff and the wheel and see the golden threads that are there spun; as if the tapestries of life are real and magic woven into every one. The mural of one's life does take its turns; one section, all bright colours,- next of dark. The concept of these things within me burns as I perceive the meaning of the spark. Our tapestries are dark where we're alone and brightest where the light of love has shone.
