Hard times, bad luck,
rampant indecision
a victim of my naiveté
this patch is woven tight
shaded gray
Bright strands,
gold and silver
mingle here
dispel the overwhelming blue
Sun and vivid flowers
make a splash
of brilliance,
Overcome by black
deepest purple, too
weaving in and out,
The toll time demands
for passage.
Life’s tapestry
woven with joys
and deep regrets.
