Question: Are we weavers!?
Weavers
Tapestries are strewn
across this chasmed world,
lines woven through centuries,
humanities colors imbued!.
Much stains these carpets carry
edges ragged and threads bare
patterns seemingly chaotic,
the centers though, never frayed!.
Recorders they of history past,
and portends of future lines!.
The looms never stop their weaves
as stitching sings and the world chants!.
But if the final tapestries must end
what then the verdict of quality spun!?
Who will view our offerings proffered
and say: “that was the work of man!.”
And be proud!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You have brought the power of weaving to mortal man - may we do justice to the honor!. In ancient beliefs - this power was reserved for the gods!.
