Our shared strands ...
Our shared strands of light,
of hope.
Afloat on tendrils of starstuff,
whispering warmth -
hoping hope may be found.
Sketching memories, painting tears,
falling like leaves,
etching reminders of less warm times -
hoping hope may be found.
Time tenderly infuses hope,
cajoling me,
urging you,
caressing us all,
to embrace
the here,
the now -
for hope to be found,
somehow.
Our shared Strands
