THE TAPESTRY HANGS BEFORE ME

when i look
at the words
woven in the fabric,
love stands out.
but see,
it needs a place
where comfort resides-
a poetic declaration
threaded out of life.

tragedies of yesteryear
become explorations
written in metaphor.
sometimes understanding

is all it takes.
there is strength,
a caricature-
omnipotent and alive.

it needs you
and the work
will be complete.

Nice job!

You might want to substitute "yesterday" for "yesteryear". The latter word seems a bit out of place and time in this poem.

The words of this poem

are woven as intricately as the tapestry. Splendid!

Alas, why aren't more things...

...written in understanding? Why is it, that the ones we love always seem to speak in metaphors? Nice read, DC!
