The Weaver


Dawn tiptoes stealthily on the

Weaver with her slender back


Strapped to the loom,

As she whistles a merry tune


The chirping birds pause and listen

With envious wonder


And the dawn takes his flight


She weaves her dreams with the

crimson yarn


The warp and the weft entwine in a magical union


The heddle towers majestically and

The batten beats down the blazing trail


The shuttle had journeyed


Pain,hunger and thirst

Are her familiar guests


But the weaver weaves on

Whistling a merry tune


And when the dusk winks at her

He sees an exquisite dream


Sparkling in the weaver's loom
