The Web

I happened upon a remarkable sight
A glittering web in the dawn’s subtle light
Each thread was a masterpiece woven with grace
To make up an intricate pattern of lace

It shimmered with dew drops, the tears of the night
And glowed in the sun’s early radiance of light
So fragile, yet spun to the edge of allure
Attracting the curious eye to it’s door

Each silvery twine interlaced to the whole
Each ribbon embracing the heart and the soul
Each poet a beautiful thread of delight
As part of a truly remarkable site

Elizabeth Santos

If I were browsing in a book store, came upon a book of poems by Elizabeth Santos, I would quickly purchase it!

*sigh* and each poet spinning their own thread that brings them all together into the most beautiful web there ever was. I love this poem. It is perfect and so beautiful is the vision you create with it.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
