weaving blooms, 2

i see darkness.

what was

never was.

i see bruises.
life tends to give you those.

i see the softness of
melted butter
and early morning sunshine.

and maybe
a teensy bit
of fear.

    I notice the movement in the quilting stitches, flowing diagonally with and against the parallel weave. The flow intrigues me, draws me…

    This split me open. I love it. Suffering and hope, all in one. So true.
