Threaded Thoughts

Threaded thoughts turn in tangle
Cause a kind of twisted wrangle
Words of sorts all tied in brangle
Reprieve lost while chances dangle

Take this thread untwist the knot
Straighten line in view of what
From all heat erase pains rot
Let those words all be forgot

Remove the taint of hasty deed
Replace it with soul's bright bead
Give to those in want and need
In grace and love plant truth’s seed

Go forward now the path is clear
No need to hold back in fear
In ease of heart light shall appear
Illumes your soul removes the tear

Threaded line of tangled thought
Erase the path reveals naught
Tangle of a knot un-wrought
Reveal shape of what is caught

Marsha



Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh

My darling friends, a little note brangle Verb Old English it means to squabble or fuss, can also be akin to a verbal melee.

But I know you would have all worked it out, I’m just saving you having to track it down.
I’m glad you like this little rhyme slip, or more accurately slip of rhyme

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Now if you'd just said that brangle was an Aussie expression ya know there would have been no fuss at all!   Loved the read, it really grabed me!

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.  ~Arthur Miller
