Emily's Best Poem
Last Words From A Weaver's Basket
There was a garden for a mile
just for you and me;
sit with me for awhile,
while the lilies weave by the sea.
By the mossy shore, the ocean sighs,
where a covert cove hides,
its fingers upon the harpsichord;
resplendent is the light through the plank boards.
Wait with me for a tear
while I echo here—
spirits weaving a basket into a braid,
sit here, while I am afraid.
--Emily Isaacson, Hallmark
