Child widgets of this toplevel will only use the toplevel's cursor if
they don't have a cursor defined for themselves.

If you check the cursor defined in your text widget by doing "print
textwidget['cursor']" you will see there is already a cursor defined
for it, so you can either create this textwidget with cursor='' or set
it to '' after creating.
