He's Like A Shawl

He's like a shawl she seeks comfort in

The shawls edges are a bit tattered and torn

It is patched and easily seen through and while

It's stained in places most will never see,

The shawl is beautifully woven in muted hues.

Fogged bridle paths burn away in sunlight

Inviting heat within the stark coolness

The interwoven golden threads show the way.

This is an ordinary shawl like those shes found

While searching garage sales looking

For the elusive rare treat that will make her rich

She's found the unexpected within the ordinary.

She gladly wears its rough texture

Bound in it's strongly woven fiber

Tightly wrapped around her shoulders she'll

Ward off winters chill upon her upturned face .
