Love Is A Thread

Excellence Award in the 'Step Write Up 2011' competition

A special world for you and me
A special bond I can see.
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
It's fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nesting us from the cold.
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong.
In some special words I can say
you and me on a holiday,
sounds like love.
It really sounds like love.
