And Then… #Poetry

Image by Comfreak from Pixabay
Take one silken thread
And then
Let it free to touch
And then
With wings unseen, fly
And then
Unite the world in thought
And then
Take each other’s hand
And then
With touch, love springs
And then
Ghosts whisper of demons gone
And then
Old memories come knocking
And then
The silken thread is broken
And then
You see change is fleeting 
And then
New ideas keep breathing
And then 
You start again

      I wonder if that’s what she had in mind?

          It’s a miracle she can write anything at the moment…
