the air has turned cold.
my thoughts turning, unfold
and you turn,
as I’m tugging
on the ontological thread
that glistens in the tread
of your psyche.
the air has turned night
and this thread
warms me alive.

Yes the nights are cold, and I turn, no creases to hold. nor unfold.

Yes, all of those things Anie. I am glad if you felt it π
I was a bit more pensive than usual yesterday after church, in a good way, for a number of reasons.
I am very grateful my husband and I are on the same page spiritually. This came from that place.

Oh I am glad for you about this. What do you mean on the same page spiritually? Religion? May I ask, what church you join?

It is a wonderful feeling Vanessa when you can pick this feeling from the thoughts of another, especially someone you are close to. Sometimes the trigger can come from the simplest word and the impact is as you use in your beautiful line, warms me alive.
Your wonderful poem has set a good path for the week. Thank you.

A pleasure Vanessa. Starting to get back on track thank you. It has been a frantic and mixed first half of the year. How are things with you?

We are okay, thanks. We are meeting with the head surgeon on Wed to discuss what is next for Darrin, but we are so happy things aren’t urgent. Very relieved. But he will still have some big, preventative decisions to make.
Could be a lot worse!
