Thread — silk, clear and light
supporting cradling holding
not restricting
free to release.
Out of the blue of heavenly heights
through quietly beating hearts
connected
wrapping around and around
pulling in tight
straight up
through tomorrow’s hidden eyes.
Thread — silk, clear and light
On a cushion of grass, this cradling blanket
easing memories
The scent of blue sky, warm breeze
caresses my drifting thoughts
the memories soak deep.
Thread — silk, clear and light
Your glistening eyes deep in my soul
hold hope behind the tears
I hear the whisper on wings floating by
“Hold on for tomorrow’s dreams –
stitched joy blooms again.”
