Dressed my heart in lace
A pattern refined
Defined by tales
Too dark to tell
Tatted tatters into beauty
Spun gold right out of straw
Wove the sparkling strands
Onto the edges of the open spaces
Bring to me your heart
Dress it well and trimmed
In every tender moment
Crafted from your life
Be it simple or for show
Bend each blessing into filigrees
Of light
To brighten every row
Nod to the violinist
Meet me on the floor
Our hearts are ready now
To dance
Syncopated to the rhythm
Of the Universal beat
The tune of all creation
A song of hope and dreams
That can never be extinguished
As long as we can hear the
Faint melody of life
Flowing under like a river
Under every sacrifice
