Rewoven Tapestry
For Ellie Hoov's Wonderland Challenge and Vocal's Tattoo this line challenge
Our lives are tears stitched into art. —Michelle Liew’s Tattoable of the day

The journey of life is like reconstructing a torn tapestry-one that moves from the challenge of isolation but is resilient, filled with hope and love.
Capture this spirit along with me as you read this Haiku chain.

A torn tapestry
Threads unravelled, flung askew
Art now discarded
✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵
A reworked canvas
Small knots hard to unravel
Tenacious to cut.

Rewoven canvas
Firm fabric carefully stitched—
Solid cloth secure.
✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵
Reassembled cloth
Fabric formed from torn pieces
Threads shining anew.
✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵
Refitted canvas
Threads restitched with nurturing hands
Cloth reworked with care.
✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵✂️🧵
Torn threads now rebound
Holding new cloth in its place—
Tears stitched into art.
