Tapestry |
My life has been a tapestry |
Of rich and royal hue |
An ever lasting vision |
Of the ever-changing view |
A wonderous woven magic |
In bits of blue and gold |
A tapestry to feel and see, |
Impossible to hold |
Once amid the soft and silver sadness in the sky |
There came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by |
He wore a torn and tattered cloth around his leathered hide |
And a coat of many colors, yellow green on either side |
He moved with some uncertainty as if he din’t know |
Just what he was there for or where he ought to go |
Once he reached for something golden hanging from a tree |
And his hand came down empty |
Soon within my tapestry along the rutted road |
He sat upon on a river rock and turned into a toad |
It seem that he had fallen into someone’s wicked spell |
And I wept to see him suffer, though I didn’t know him well |
As I watched in sorrow, then suddenly appeared |
A figure grey and ghostly beneath a flowing beard |
In time of deepest darkness |
I’ve seen him dressed in black |
Now my tapestry’s unravelling; |
He’s come to take me back (3 times) |
