She Sits at Her Loom
Artistry in Everyday Life: Weaving Life's SymphonyLyrics
In the quiet of the cellar, in the farthest of rooms
In a secluded part of the cellar, in the most distant room
She sits at her loom and she weaves
She engages in the act of weaving at her loom
The mold and the laundry, they mingle a scent
The odors of mold and laundry combine in the air
As she sits at her loom and she weaves
Continuing to weave at her loom
Above and around, the family is stirring
Family members are active in the surroundings
She hears footsteps and voices as she weaves
She perceives the sounds of footsteps and voices while weaving
The cotton, the linen, the wool and the silk
Various materials like cotton, linen, wool, and silk are used
The feel to her fingers as she weaves
She senses the texture with her fingers while weaving
Blue, red, green, and brown, deep lavender and yellow
Colors like blue, red, green, brown, lavender, and yellow are employed
The look to her eyes as she weaves
Her eyes express a certain look while weaving
The littlest is crying, the others are fighting
The youngest child is crying, and others are in conflict
She hopes they can manage as she weaves
She wishes for their ability to manage their situation as she continues to weave
Big pot on the stove needs the burner turned low
A large pot on the stove requires a low burner setting
The children need rides and she weaves
Children need transportation, yet she persists in weaving
She winds up the warp and covers the loom
She finishes the weaving task, covers the loom, and leaves the room
Shuts the door, turns around, and she leaves
Shutting the door behind her
As she climbs up the stairs, she thinks wool, she thinks color
As she ascends the stairs, her thoughts revolve around wool and color
She can't wait to come back to weave
Anticipation to return for further weaving
In the quiet of the cellar, in the farthest of rooms
Reiteration of the setting in the quiet cellar's farthest room
That's where you might find her
This is where one might discover her
As she sits at her loom and she weaves
Continuing the act of weaving at her loom
