T - A Truism

 

PC : Internet


As the needle pierced through 
The cloth gave a sigh
And asked the thread
Would it pain....
Every single time
The thread however 
Stood there beside
And kept smiling
A few winces 
A few caresses 
A few broken threads
A few embroidered patterns



And in the end... 
The cloth wasn't the same...

Wow. Pain and transformation so poignantly portrayed. Short poem but likely to leave a lasting impact.

The prick and pain were worth it in the end. That's life in a nutshell. Of course, we need to know which ones enhance us and which ones bleed us dry. A poignant and beautiful poem, Ira.

It wasn't the same but the cloth had grown, become more beautiful. Lovely!

Our soul's cloth needs the needles of lessons:)
