THE POEM BY THEA SCHILLER

 Unflappable in the wind,
 The letters attach like sewn tapestry.
 Tradition of lovers and humanists stand 
 In ancient moonlight.
 No need of a Norman conquest to last
 Eleven centuries on cloth.
  
 But the year 3030?
  
 Literati and soulful air,
 of hearts and psyche given
 will infuse the great, great, 
 great grandchildren
 to frolic and breathe in
 the hope and continuity
 of each verse.
