tangle
Picture: Tangle by David Boehm
~
arms wrapped round
in braided embrace
two tangled threads
languidly spun in
gentle rough tumble
moments like this
stretch to infinity
life’s chaotic
sprawl suddenly
condenses and compacts
in one perfect instant
This is the first poem I’ve written in ages. I had some inspiration overcome me today, and this is what came of it. I had wanted to call it Tangle early on, so I did a Y! Image Search for “tangle”, and found David’s photo, which is also titled Tangle. I hope he doesn’t mind my using it, but I felt it went well with what I had in mind with this poem.
