Intertwined – v4


as a thread joined together
into a beautiful image
a tapestry, on a loom
intertwined colors, pulled
coming together;
as the roots of the redwood
woven one to another
healed in the union
standing throughout time

stronger in union
against the winds, the storms
seeking the Christ,
longing for comfort
safe from all harm;
braced together
joining in the struggles
like a Chinese finger trap
tighter when we are under stress
