A Delicate Thread Holding Us Together

Clouds drift away
dissolving into worlds of clusters
creating a space between you and me,
--clouds do what they must.
It’s the wind that has the power
to fill the space with laughter
and fill it with grace.
You’re the wind!
Fill the space between us,
It’s the wind who tells
what’s worth to keep
and who’s worth to guard.
Surrender to the truth!  
hold on
to the delicate thread
holding us together.
