A Tapestry

So many lives intertwined,
woven into the
Tapestry of Life.
Each thread fragile by itself,
so easily snapped,
but so important to the whole!
For each thread
is a support for the next-
all dependent on one another.
My life
passes through the Tapestry,
crossing other strands;
some weak,
some strong,
but all needing to be met.
My greatest consolation being
the thread that runs
parallel throughout the weave,
my Helpmate and Support:
our patterns mingle,
  our colors blend,
  until we merge
into the Infinite Design.
