Welcome To The Spun Threads

Welcome to another poetry blog. I spin these poems because I feel the need to write about what I feel. If someone else enjoys them, that is a bonus.

I hope you enjoy what you read here. Let me know what strikes you.


These are the threads of my life

Baby steps

Do not catch me if I fall
I would never learn to stand
Do not stop me when I crawl
I will never learn to run

I would never learn to stand
Face the world with loving grace
I will never learn to run
Race the wind to set my pace

Face the world with loving grace
Giving, sharing truths as learned
Race the wind to set my pace
Laughter ringing as bright I burn

Giving, sharing truths as learned
Learning more from each mistake
Laughter ringing as bright I burn
Trying not to lose my way

Learning more from each mistake
Fall yet to rise again
Trying not to lose my way
Crawl back where I began

Fall yet to rise again
Do not catch me when I fall
Crawl back where I began
Do not stop me when I crawl
