fields of dreams
ambered waves
grained

a feast of gold
fit for any king
spun by special hands
bailed and strung
a third rowen
... unpredictable

a cut above
the rest
fiber-filled
leaving tenderness
rumpled silk skins
midas' touched

spun by special hands
a loving mother
with her own dreams

naturally

In rhythms to a rise the days shall follow ... each Yesterday, each Tomorrow.   -  Ct/05

Craig, I love the title, the play on Rumpelstiltskin!
The poem is cool!

The soft hand that nurtures
all life is Mother's touch,
beautiful words Ctowen,

blessed is the mother's touch
to spin weeds into winners
