Woven In Silk Threads of Love

Woven in Silk Threads of Love
(Apropos Us and the Children)

Time tested love, bruised
and battered,
lay like littered crystals
on the steel plate stage of life;
dismembered and crumbled
like a stale cookie
whose particles 
have lost
their electromagnetic-like
attractiveness.

Ingredients of envious spice
inhibits any and all adhesiveness—
that tough threading  love folds and kneads.

Yet, the sprinkling of forgiveness
knits and weaves the web 
of diverse unity of understanding—
                          cocooning new beginnings:

Indeed, the most fragile butterfly wings
have endured—soared in monarch majesty—
defying time tested, treacherous winds
that the teeming silk of love forever spins.

Yes, to err is human; to forgive divine;
may eternal blessings forever twine
this tender love of yours and mine.
