Under and Over
About our rattan furniture
Under and over, end threaded through
The rattan is woven into a solid form
Ripples created, in a sea of ecru
A seat on which to cuddle and be warm
Over and under the pattern goes
Around the arms framed of iron wrought
A decorative piece on which to strike a pose
An heirloom in the making, earnestly sought
Under and over the weave completes
The opus of the furniture, with skill
A cushion may be added to the seats
But 'tis not needed, please sit, if you will
