Unpredictable
Like hand-dyed threads drawn tight across a loom
a parent winds the sturdy warp stretched wide
but taut, a shed built strong but leaving room
for life to wield the shuttle children ride.
The final vision cannot be discerned
as colors side by side are amplified
as weft threads slide then deftly are returned;
an artisan allows the work to speak
a language of its own that's only learned
by following the steady fall and peak.
The siblings give no thought to what's unseen,
all consequences cloaked in life's mystique.
They'll hold each other close as they careen
through life, no distance in the years between.
Any and all crit welcome.
