The shroud I am a stitch a thread of spume Woven in humanities loom Material of cloak or shroud This species that I am endowed Hold the hand of before and aft The product of an unknown craft And wonder in the blankets lay What part of bizarre do I play? I can’t let go these held out hands They are the cloth that holds the bands And an integral part be I No matter the cry or the sigh So I am strung the blankets weave Holding the hand and love of Eve And reaching out to grab the next For this is the shroud and it’s text So lend me your hand in embrace And we will weave this magic lace. |

"So lend me your hand in embrace And we will weave this magic lace." Sy, such a wonderful piece this morn! And, I love the closing couplet. Bet you're about ready for your tea? Sit tight...I'll pour. ~Morning hugs, Nancy~ ~The breeze that kissed you on the face, |

Seymour, this is lovely and thought-provoking....some good reminders here. As I head out into the world today I'll be contemplating "What part of bizarre do I play?". Thank you, dear man. |

And Seymour, you are one of the greatest weavers of text that I have as yet to know...each piece you produce woven with magic for both the eyes and heart, for us to wrap up in! ~V~ I speak from the Voice Of Experience [This message has been edited by VOE (07-29-2003 10:16 AM).] |

Thoughtful, and tender... a love write's render.. a slip of feel and tug of love, all of this, and heaven above. Smiling... |

Good evening, Sey,our  As you can see, I'm late today. I wasn't on the computer much today because of the thunderstorms in my part of Florida. I didn't want to miss your poem for today, though. This ending is really sweet. So lend me your hand in embrace And we will weave this magic lace. Hugs  Ethel |

You're right, I thought about it all day, I'm just like a stitch in a thread. It's a bizarre weave and I'm part of it. I held my own hand of love today. See how you made me think? K smiles... |

I'm so late in replying to this fine poetic fodder, that I guess I'll have to wait at the end of the line of those who are eagerly offering to lend their hand in embrace of you!  From, Guess Who |

Furthermore... I claim that spot at the end of the line... at least temporarily. *G* A beautiful write, Seymour... sealed with the perfect ending couplet. *S* |

suthern, Well I can get you in next to last, but I'd rather you were up front somewhere. |
