The Loom of Time  "Fate knows all about you, it knows your fears and your weaknesses and your confidences and strengths, and it can be ready for all of them when it decides that the time is right. It can move you like a pawn in a terrible game of chess, sacrifice you for the good of others, drop you from a building you should never have been inside, give you a disease that no one has ever heard of. Luck and chance are impartial. Fate is active. It picks on people. Almost as if it thinks about things too much ..." ~~ Tim Lebbon To a pattern he does not see While the weaver works and the shuttles fly Till the dawn of eternity Some shuttles are filled with silver threads And some with threads of gold While often but the darker hues Are all that they may hold But the weaver watches with skillful eye Each shuttle fly to and fro And sees the pattern so deftly wrought As the loom moves sure and slow God surely planned the pattern Each thread, the dark and fair Is chosen by His master skill And placed in the web with care He only knows its beauty And guides the shuttles which hold The threads so unattractive As well as the threads of gold Not till each loom is silent And the shuttles cease to fly Shall God reveal the pattern And explain the reasons why The dark threads were as needed In the weaver's skillful hand As the threads of gold and silver For the pattern which He planned “The Loom of Time” Author Unknown |
