The dragon <\/em>is in the street dancing beneath windows<\/em>
\npasted with colored squares, past the man
\nwho leans into the phone booth\u2019s red pagoda, past
\ncrates of doves and roosters veiled
\nuntil dawn.

\u2026I stand as a witness where I observe some special women who show details of their lives in a unique slice of time and place. Each woman has a connection with a divine presence, and each has some aspect of the fiber arts at the center of her story. The women\u2019s stories were passed down from antiquity via oral tradition and writings by historians. The texts from different cultures at various time periods give us insight and inspiration for living a meaningful life in our own time and place. The women in the writings add valuable information that will enlighten or help contemporary people to understand timeless universal truths. The imprint of the past cannot be erased. It won\u2019t disappear, but remains with us through the generations\u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
