she sits at the loom of her mind pulls out her pen the needle that she uses to weave her tales of love using the thread of life she stiches into the cloth of time the most delicate patterns each one more amazing than the next and just when I don't know how much more I can stand in that amazement she turns the tapestry over and shows me all the work that went into it stitches not only of love but of pain of heartache and heartbreak of good times and bad what's this part here? I ask, pointing to a dark spot she tells me that it's the time she began a new spool that didn't come out it's full of these spots light and dark the loves of her life I note that the closer I get to the top the threads seem brighter why is that? I ask she tells me to wait one cold night, she went to bring it to me and as I wrapped it around us, I saw woven into the fabric my face the threads of her love showing me her heart and I could feel her love warming me and making me believe in love again. . . this is what happens when she weaves the fabric of romance. . . ----------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

OK Sven, get an 800 number so we can ALL hear you read it to every one of us... and in absence of your voice...my own imagination tells me this is a work of art...and has been marked in MY library so that when book 2 comes along, this will surely be among the best of the best...ever! Talk about someone outdoing even himself! Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Sven.... I had to stop by and read this for several reasons. First of all, I love every poem you write, secondly: my maiden name is Weaver, and thirdly: this is my 1300th post, my lucky number is 13, and your work is like magic to my eyes!! So.....you have made this post special with your beautiful work!!! Thank you, my good friend... Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Sven, your inspiration for this piece must be a very special person...as is this uniquely beautiful creation. So very lovely, this, my friend... ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
