Analysis of THAUMATURGIC TAPESTRY



Oh, this wondrous fabric of history,

Weaving from my mind,

Flowing from my quill,

As brain instructs hand,

To speak words of ink,

Floating in space,

A miracle of creation,

In many ways so different,

Yet knitted neatly together,

These stepping stones,

To humankind's future,

These time-worn mirrors,

Allowing us to look back,

Pounding stone into wheel,

Spinning stick into fire,

Seeing the birth of innovation,

The wonders of nature,

This miraculous tapestry of our lives,

Learning just recently to fly,

Through life giving air,

Even soaring in a vacuum,

Only decades ago unreachable,

What a magical time,

Visions sent through thin air,

Yet heard clearly,

Around the Earth,

We've been given the tools,

To forge our own destiny,

Let's use them for good,

Then our eternal destiny,

Will be complete.
