Tangled Vines

To break through the darkness, into the fresh sunlight To press ever upwards towards the light so bright Twisting and turning and stretching arms out wide Climbing pushing ever upwards, no more time to bide Nothing can stop the growth, forever on and up Until you wrapped around me and drank from the same cup Your arms held me tight you began to share my growth There is no telling one from the other, we have become both… Like a twisting tangled vine, two parts but one another There is no separating without harm caused to each other Knitted together forever, in a loving tangled mess Sharing the same support, having each other to bless. When autumn comes and our leaves age and fall Remember vines are perennial and will grow on again so tall Holding on to each other our vines will then bear fruit Each year they grow stronger and none can then uproot. © 19/07/2013 ~GG~

They have agreed to publish two of mine and I think they prefer offbeat, humorous stuff...Right up your alley
