Gathering Place I have pleaded with life and begged for different from this silken fabric ripped there is a delicate balance and it has all come undone a string has slipped the weave too much space between the loops yet, this prayer is not an impulse but more the strength of motivation can one thread spin without web no, it lacks the design of pattern will tomorrow be the needle in gather to once again be touched in lace "be prepared to bleed" Joni Mitchell |

Keep weaving with the delicate needles of your heart and the pattern will yet be one of beauty and perfection...wonderful and powerful writing... |

though the title first grabbed my attention (and it turned out to be something entirely different than I expected) I was not disappointed. I especially find these lines enjoyable: "yet, this prayer is not an impulse but more the strength of motivation" it seems we are stronger through resolve than through reaction... |

"too much space between the loops" and sometimes the loops need to be rewoven as always, a moving piece, Helen M |

your words are gathering thoughts...for me, the following was truly inspiring yet, this prayer is not an impulse but more the strength of motivation yes indeed, an intense work in progress to gain finally this kind of peace. |
