Gossamer Bridges Revisited
I wander amid the threads
streaming through my thoughts.
The lines cross and blur, drifting
In silent orchestration--
At times interweaving,
Three-fold composite of journeys parallel
Connected through cyberspace,
Lifeline to heart-selves dangling from precipice
Voices uttering stories unheard,
depths unknown
inside.
At times the threads cut
Binding together knowings which cannot coexist--
At times the strands reach across chasms of resolve,
spiraling through unfolding universes that might have been,
tunneling connection with what is not
In parallel existence paths unfolding
flashes revealing a deeper Beauty.
. clarifying vision
. . . mending wounds
. . . . . expanding sight
Threads issuing from springs of passion,
tempered in authenticity and tears,
shared in trust and respect--
these fragile translucent threads
are the eternal, healing stuff of Bridges
