"The weaver and the wizard"

I am uncertain of when this one was written.  It may have been much later than I suppose.  It is in the same vein as "Bifrons"  It had to be written in the 2010's.

The weaver and the wizard

The artisan begins his tireless toil

The consequence of all the threads uncoil

The whisper of the weaver's patience tasked

Each thread, an answer to a question asked

But, for the tapestry to answer all

The blend of threaded questions must enthrall

Suspended gaze must answer to the call

The witness of the wizard wherewithal

A tableau that can cast the curing spell

Eliminates inertias that propel

The tapestry unbinds the vile unreason

Transforming life from winter's brutal season

The weaver builds the tapestry from thread

The wizard brings the life to those undead

In colors bright, the tapestry portrays

That life can be more than the pending days

Warm and rich, this life beneath the sun

The weaver and the wizard are as one
