A year's worth of poems, every week for 52 weeks, spanning 2023 and 2024, plus the year following, from August 2024 to August 2025.(provided I live that long, of course).
Thank you, Allan Charles. I've contested the Charlie Chaplin thing a couple of times, won once, if I remember correctly. But it's the kind of thing I try when bored and have nothing better to do - just doesn't seem to have happened lately.
All night she worked
by moon and stars,
by warp and woof,
her secret skill,
and now her silver veil,
bejewelled with dew,
reflects the morning light
in delicate array.
All day she waits
while woven wisp
entices trade
and passersby,
their presence
presents gifted
by innocence deceived
and web in tatters left.
This night she’ll work
and weave anew.
