The Golden Thread

The Golden Thread

In life,
there exists a pulsating faith
a golden thread
running through it all
hemming the lengths
of spiritual inseams
ironing in
the perfect crease,
adding beauty to love's adornment
with golden stitches
binding us all together
in uncommon
leather,
for surely
we all share in
the heart of it all,
in our appearances
as well as
our hidden beliefs
which only manifest when we
decide,
to allow our God-given choices
to be shared by
the Golden Thread
on time's endless spool
which we
so carefully
wrap ourselves around
in order that we
may communicate in perfect
lengths...

Our present understanding
of those earthly
lengths of love,
Or that which we have no words for
except for an infinitesimal
Inference we find
in the single,
Golden Thread,
running through
the fabric,
of time...

Love The Golden Thread! Β My favorite part:

hemming the lengths
of spiritual inseams
ironing in
the perfect crease

At the very core, we all start out with the same "material" life given us by our marvelous Creator! Β Great piece!*!*!

Great poem Tony

love the imagery of the Golden thread which I interpret to be 'Faith' that runs through all aspects of

life holding it together with binding loving stitches and also the importance to communicate this to

others with love and this is to run through all of time . Lovely x

Yay!! Thanx WENDY!!........I was hoping you'd catch this one.... and yes..... the faith that all humans name different things in their own personal belief systems....... that voice in their heads........ is a common thread....... running through us all....... appreciate the support my friend......... Love to you and yours!!....... smiles........T xo. ?βœ³βœ΄β˜€

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,

It is so sad to see that some of humanity has souls that are threadbareΒ 

Instead of being wrapped in the Lord's Golden Thread

They are entwined by Satan's Tentacles

They know not of the "Golden Rule"

They do all they can to pan evil, and distribute it to the world

Yet, love conquers all

Eventually, mankind's Golden Threads will wrap around their throats

Strangling and silencing them forever

Peace, Love and Rockets,

Larry xxx

Thanx LARRY!!..... you my friend are an opinionated poet whose Love for humanity is apparent....... but should we not remember......that God's golden thread (as an analogy)...... would never hurt a man intentionally ....that thread would find its way into a man's DNA......and remain dormant until necessary........ good planning?....... for generations to come.... just an arrogant thought!!...... perhaps I should be drawn and quartered...... what say you!!?......I Love our repartee'....... smiles .....T xo ?β™₯β™₯

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,

I am an Art Dealer, but I can't draw a straight line. Β So, I guess that eliminates for me, your being "drawn and quartered". Β Besides the fact, you are worth your weight in gold, so that rules out the quarter part too.

Peace, Love and Rockets,

Dear Brother Poet Tony,

I don't mind being called a "cool cat" but if you really want to make me happy, call me a "hot dog". Β You know comedy is also something I try to delve into, and when I can bring a smile to your face, it brings joy to my heart.

Peace, Love and Greasy Kid's Stuff,

My Brother Poet Tony,

You are making my day, because sometimes attempts at humor, are not all they are "cracked up" to be. Β Chess is not my forte, due to an Uncle who taught me the game when I was a very young lad, but then proceeded to "checkmate me" in record moves every game. Β But I am so happy you mentioned poker, because it and billiards,wereΒ my majors in college. Β Since you challenged me, I am challenging you to a game of "strip poker". Β I can't wait for you to bare your heart to me. Β Love you bro.

Peace, Love and Rockets,

Larry xxx
