artful living

the threads of us
our individual yarns of textures
each colored by our experience
and the exposure to life's adventures and light
wove themselves together as we talked

our stories mingled and danced
unearthing our desires and unspoken dreams
reflections that made us smile as tears spilled from our eyes
the pauses and silence
enhancing the fabric of our gathering

over the hours we connected and quilted a pattern of friendship and laughter, soul food that wraps me in warmth and love
