Tangled threads of pain and sorrow

Wrap around my heart and soul.

Knots choke the breath of life,

Yet the struggle is not done.

Picking up pieces of my life,

Threads of who I am.

Putting them back into place

Weaving a new fabric.

I'm not who I was.

The old is woven with the new,

As I move along

Back and forth

Recapturing threads.

A new cloth is created.

From Mother earth, my voice within

Visions appear and

Move me on again.

A new day brings the light

Joy fills me up anew.

Now I see what I must do.

The colors blend

With pictures clear

And I begin

Again.

I'm awash in therapeutic insight.

If only it were as simple as merely speaking the words.

But your presentation is wonderful, Kathy!

Moving and captvating. It is amazing what the sting of pain and sorrow can do to the very core of existence, which appears to be the motivating force towards forever being changed. Well said..

"Threads"
"Tangled threads of pain and sorrow"
Heartfelt, it says all that one's heart
could feel.
Engrossing from start to finish, it pulled me in.

Thank you,
Gwendolyn

Reviewed by CJ Heck 10/8/2006
A very intuitive write, Kathryn. We are all creatures of our environment and everything that happens to us throughout life makes us who we are -- you've used the metaphor of threads to tell your story. Excellent.
Warmest regards,
CJ
