“Weavers of Life”
Pine Burr, The Yearbook of Beaumont High School, Beaumont, Texas, 1929
Each of us is a weaver
Making a varied cloth;
Each of us is a craftsman
Who works at the loom of years.
We spin the golden flax of hours
Into our shining thread;
The dye of our deeds gives us color,
Drab or rich in its tone;
And we weave our thoughts into patterns
With swift shuttles of days.
Each of us is a weaver;
Life is the cloth we weave;
God is the Master Craftsman
Who judges our finished wares.
