The Weaver knows time
in another way.
Pulsing Life
but not to a clock's ticking
nor to thunder and wind,
or wild geese winging.
The Weaver's heart lives time
as Endless Day.
No nights
to spend time playing
with stars of mind and desire,
these glitterings.
The Weaver creates us
with a timeless shuttle.
Creating a Soul
no universe would dare,
no cosmos could bear to spin.
With Love so patient
no time is long enough;
With Love so truthful
no words are true enough;
With Love so healing
no wound is deep enough;
With Love so seeking
no heart is bereft enough;
With Love so compassioned
no sin is wrong enough;
With Love so completing
no two are divided enough.
With such a Love, The Weaver
sings our souls into
this wondrous Tapestry
called Human life.
~ Farida Nur Parker (written in 1974), may Beloved's grace be your companion
"It is He Who maketh the stars (as beacons) for you, that ye may guide yourselves, with their help, through the dark spaces of land and sea: We detail Our signs for people who know."
~ The Quran 6:97 (Yusuf Ali Translation)
