Weaving tapestries of love and life
Fate sits beside her wheel,
Spinning yarn and twirling silk,
never any time to kill.
Slender fingers tickle threads,
manipulating lovers.
smiling as love comes to pass,
underneath the covers.
Fickle Fate, stay in her graces,
or she will conquer you,
If love you want then keep her sweet,
or life will leave you blue.

Good write
A very nice symbolic and neat play on words nicely rhymed and penned I enjoyed reading it George(JUDMC) U.K. I've got two to pick from "Little Girl" or
"Peters Girl" see what you think friend Good Luck.

Ah.. that flying fickle finger of fate... Just laying in wait so that on a Tuesday afternoon, when nobody is looking, she can whack you over the head with a bit of lead piping.
Lovely stuff, mate.
