Severed Cord

Uncategorized 1 Minute

I held
on so tight to
you but when you died the
silver cord was severed you were
released

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a reference to Ecclesiastes 12:6-7
“Remember him—before the silver cord is severed, and the golden bowl is broken; before the pitcher is shattered at the spring, and the wheel broken at the well, and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.”

Cinquain Poetry Prompt 8: RELEASED is your inspiration.
