The Library
I wandered in books
and little nooks.
Books weaved layers
worlds weaved books.
Wandering was like wondering
why in the world of words
was wording like weaving
and weaving like words...
The stringing of thread,
the stringing of word;
the ringing of rug,
in my grandmother’s ward.
Where thoughts were woven
before they were spoke;
and woven was spoken
before it was wrote.
I like to touch words
and read thread;
weave worlds
inside my head.
A velvet song
on a barren boat;
A dancing scarf
in air afloat.
Jasmines wove
into skies;
Whispering scents
to blue butterflies.
Whose wings open
to form a page;
worlds of wonder
for a wandering sage.
Wandering was like wondering
why in the world of words
was wording like weaving
and weaving like words…
