Life’s Tapestry Lives are woven with truthful thread showing each pathway that we’ve tread All threads add to the finale scene including parts which go unseen Weaving makes the picture perfect true knowledge of us, the subject Each way we turn a stitch is made of patterns that will never fade Rainbows of color reflect our life revealing love, joy, pain and strife As each of us a path we tread we chose the color of the thread Such choices in our lives abound, with precision they are wound Life’s Tapestry is woven fine to be part of the grand design Karen Torbiak 2002© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Karen...Maybe I'm reading into this but it seems like it's weaving a beginning. Anyway, I could relate a lot to it. Great write! |

EagleScorpion....*grin* I hope to make mine fit for the King of Kings...Thank you...**big hugs** Jen...I love bright colors and it seems nothing in my life is ever pastels...*grin* oh well...at least the tapestry I weave will shout the paths of my life clearly...*giggling* amazing how your comment set me thinking.. Magnus...Ah, yes...you have captured the vision of this poem...each of us weaves our own tapestry by all the different choices we make...**big hugs** Duncan....mmmm no beginning...in my life it is the middle...*grin* mmmm a beginning would have lots of turquoise in it for me...**big hugs** I am glad you enjoyed it... Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

You stitched this one up beautifully, Karen with artistry and precision. I loved your wisdom here.  I wrote a poem called "Tapestry", some time ago. I'll try to find it and post it. Its a bit different than this one. Thanks for sharing. copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

Beautiful and I glad I am part of the tapestry, very nice The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Oh Karen dear, this meant so much to me, I do a lot of embroidery and putting all those colored threads together to form a beautiful picture is pure joy, and your poem here comparing it to life is simply wonderful. floria Floria |

Karen - So very nice. Now I know why Lyra posted her Tapestry poem and dedicated to you. You two should weave your fine tapestry poems together. Dave [This message has been edited by GenXer (02-18-2002 12:16 PM).] |

Beautiful analogy, written so well!!! And no one knows what the final result will look like and it is so hard to stand back from your own loom and look... Till we be finished, and it is all wove togehter... then we will see the big picture. Love, Light and Peace Sherry Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. |
