Gold Dust

The hearth giving a glowing warmth
within the darkened room.
Candles about the room casting shadows in
a flickering montage of beauty.
The only sound to be heard is the
sigh of the spinning wheel.
A young girl sits beside the fire,
fingers moving with
grace and ease.
She is a weaver,
a weaver of fabric with the glow of
gold dust and shining rainbows.
She does not speak with a voice filled with words.
She speaks with her fingers
creating masterpieces of an intricate design.
She captures your reflection in a mirror, your aura.
She begins spinning, spinning,
weaving her magic-
Weaving her fabric with the glow of gold dust
and
shining rainbows.

Some do...and these creations are indeed...
dusted with gold.

And thank you, sweetie, for that beautiful message you left for me.

You know this reminded me of playing with my granddaughters a game we made up with shadows, and the connection of laughter between us we get playing. I loved the poem, the idea, and weaving seems to be on quite a few poets minds these days in one way or another - found that so strange! Nice Bonnie, very light and nice read.
