~*~*~*~*~
Figure eights, the threads skate
across icy skys of grey.
I'd follow there into the air
if just one thread would stay.

I'd find the home from far I roamed.
They say 'tis but a dream.
But I've seen it there, a chance to dare,
a silver thread, that leads that way.

While threads unravel in the wind
I want to run straight to them
follow one last silver one
to the place before it came undone.

silver threads...iron chains,  sinews of
an arm...all a part of what might be.  You
did well with this...the flow was very good
with perhaps one hiccup...but overall, nice!
Good message

Yes we all travel that trip but it isn't that simplified as one thread as it unravels as we tug

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, such innocence and wonder fills this gorgeous piece, dearest friend, I too have always wondered where the rainbow ends whenever I see one, and swear it doesn't always lead to a pot of gold, there must also be fairy glens and prismatic jungles where the come from too, yay! (sigh) I love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jo, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
