The Web by Sharon Centanne

The web is a crystal canvas,
Where we write in stained glass,
A rainbow of information,
At our fingertips so fast.

Ever flowing, like a river,
From one idea to the next,
Colorful bursts of human knowledge,
Ideas spanning the globe so vast.

Bringing worlds and folks together,
At lightning speed our thoughts entwine,
Then diverge in many directions,
Like the leaves upon a vine.

And as we try to organize,
All that passes before our eyes,
The web grows ever larger,
And dwarfs our humble tries..
