The Spider Weaves a Star

The Spider weaves a star And I in early morning mist Percieve it Jewelled by dew drops Moon touched She spins her universe Mimics the silver stars And rests. Each silken thread is centered To that time When night stars dissolve Into the dawns new day. But here below The tiny spider weaves for us Among the darkened Hedge A Miracle. And we are privilaged to see Her web star shimmer In the early sun.

Dear Shula

How beautiful I am near to speechless this is one of the best writes I have read in an age I only have one suggestion The Spider weaves a star And I in early morning mist Percieve it Jewelled by dew drops Moon touched She spins her universe Mimics the silver stars And rests. Each silken thread is centered To that time When night stars dissolve Into the dawns new day. But here below The tiny spider weaves for us Among the darkened Hedge A Miracle. And we are privilaged to see Her web star shimmer In the early sun. bravo ... I loved your poem I believe if you broke the lines down like this ? it is much more reader friendly kind regards Jayne-Chloe ("Quote:-For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.-Ivan Panin")

The spider Weaves a Star

Thank You so much for your comment on my poetry,I found this site while looking for people who share the same love of words as myself. I needed something more than I have at present and friendships that are forged by poetry will mean so much to me.

Welcome

You're welcome. It was my pleasure, and I'll be glad if you write some new poems to describe these pictures. I'm from Russia, and the pictures are from our most popular site Yandex. Of course I'm ready to translate into English. 1. Для милых дам - To nice dames. 2. На молекулярном уровне - On the molecular level. 3. Гирлянда - A garland. Konstantin.
