The Vessel




 Observe this intricate weaving:
 
This insect-trapping snare.
This delicate dish of silken threads.
This vessel of water molecules.
This string of magnificent jewels.
This symmetrical basket of mist.
This collection of diamonds upon the earth.
 
Who could possibly determine their worth?

    Thank you, my dear, sweet daughter.

    Love of God, nature, and writing offers many opportunities for creativity. Who would have thought I would become a Poet in my mid-sixties?

    Your words motivate me to continue my writing journey.

    Love,

    Dad

    I will never lose my fascination for how spiders create this intricate, symmetrical design.
