of sentences and rhymes with words, both good and evil of schemes and lives and times feelings are the backdrop they color truths and lies words, like threads through fabric make intricate designs phrases hooked together provide the ties that bind with memories in the stitches of loved ones who have died emotions are the colors they make us laugh and cry tight threads bound together fond hellos and sad goodbyes form fringes round the edges of the tapestry of life copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Lyra, You are a dream weaver of words. Your stories of hardship and overcoming them and the way you still see the wonder in the world are so inspiring. I'm glad you're my friend. Roger |

You're lovely and I'm so glad you are here, part of this, I loved the old song (remember?) by Carole King called Tapestry and I love your words. Thank you so much for this. Kathleen (Kay) |
