Thaw

Thaw

A noise that starts off slowly

Imperceptible in the background

Slowly

Building

A bit of a crack in the distance

Then suddenly a thunderous roar

The sounds of the thaw

Permeate

Invade

Time has come to move forward

Spread out from winter’s grip

Its hold gradually lessens

Then

With a snap

It is over

The silence is deafening

String Theory

String Theory

Reaching out to touch

Hands across the emptiness

Interlacing brings stability

A brief spell to stay the whispers

There is no force on Heaven or earth

That could halt the flood at the harbor

Warmness spread throughout

Tensions run high

Don’t want to cut it

Keep stringing it along

I’ll hang with you forever
