tapestry – Leaf And Twig

Garden Tapestry

the days
of summer
woven in leaves

all the movement
and colors of fall
woven into this moment

distillations combine
winter’s tapestry
grown on stone

the wind weaves
a tapestry
of elements and time

the web
she weaves
is a dense tapestry

time’s shuttle
weaving
branches, reeds, weeds

dew bejeweled
a spider’s
glittering tapestry

embellished woodland tapestry
with bullioned pinecone
embroidery

the garden
weaves a tapestry
of leaf and bloom

a tapestry
the apple tree
hung upon the sky

the woods
dress in their finery
fall’s tapestry of leaves

branches and weeds
a tapestry
woven on the loom of time

against the silver backdrop of bare branches
weeds and leaves
are the warp and woof of the landscape

A knot of limbs.
A web of leaves.
The forest is a tapestry.
