The Thread

Upon the purse’s seam
there is that silver dream

We long to forever hold
taken from a desirous mold

Placed in our ready hands
fine like momentous crystal sands

How we sift it though
is all in how the winds blow

The day, if ever it comes
would we willingly succumb?

Author notes

Prompt: "Can we ever reach our silver lining?"

    This piece is short, but it is so open in it's wording that the reader can gain a lot from it, on reading and re-reading different thoughts and emotions occur.

    Good write.
