Golden Threads
It is my pleasure to share this enchanting poem (below) which was
inspired by my post last week, Collective Dreams « THROUGH THE HEALING LENS ,
and written by David Whitman of Thoughts from the Outdoors.
Warm Thanks to David for honoring
my photo with his spectacular words!
~ Robyn Lee
And she spun the golden threads, dripping from the sun like shimmering jewels…
Silkenly falling refracting and twirling the lights like two rainbows mixed in a loving embrace…
Spiraling down, down down til the ground and trees dripped in emerald and vibrant sapphires…
This is the power of the solar god and a gentle god is she…
Nodding agreeably…
The sun went on glowing…
sinking and falling only to rise and shine again…
Beautifully evocotive, if your photo could speak it would be those words for sure. Photo and poem mesmerising. Thanks 🙂

Yes Meryl and thank you. David’s poem really blew me away. Captured so well the feelings I had about the image. Isn’t it amazing when something like that can happen without conversation or preparation of any kind?? 🙂

Why thanks Jim! I thought it a lovely collaboration as well, and very spontaneous! Love your metaphor of the fandango dancing too — gosh you are all so creative over here at WordPress! Love it!
