Exquisitely Woven: Words and music by Marguerite.
A beautiful image of how we are woven from light, breath and vibration was growing by the
time I read Hafiz’s poem Wayfarer. Sitting beside my father, I was amazed at how he shone
with grace and an inner light even as his body and mind were unravelling.
The violin represents the soul.
Exquisitely Woven is for 2 women’s voices, violin and piano
