An Unbreakable String

written by: Joyce Mary J

Made a million years ago,
When stars collided,
Beautifully connecting from one to another,
A string was born!

Getting stronger as it evolved,
The ends travelled far away,
Tangling and untangling,
Hoping to meet one day!

There was a strong pull,
But the push was too hard to ignore,
So it stretched at its best,
But never broke, a miracle they say!

Although, it is all knotted,
And ends are still trying to find their way,
The string remains unbreakable,
With love and patience at its core!

I'm a nurse by profession but I love to read and write. I only started writing poems about two years ago so that I can pen down my feelings and emotions. It's a way of expression of my thoughts.

Laura Bennett

Laura is a native of South Florida who has spent over a decade working in the healthcare industry. She loves the outdoors and is equally at home on the beach or in the mountains. She enjoys a variety of activities, including biking, photography, yoga and hiking. Spirituality is very important to Laura and much of her writing centers around working through grief and loss. Laura also writes on a variety of other topics, in which she tries to send a positive message, adding a touch of humor when appropriate. Laura doesn't shy away from writing on darker topics as she believes it's important to embrace the shadow self. If you had to ask her what her favorite drink was, she'd most definitely say coffee. You also may have seen her cosplaying Catwoman. Laura is a lover of all animals, and owns several cats and dogs.

Time Traveler by Ernie Stricsek

I will not waste words on the preparations made for the trip I am about to describe, that’s another story in itself and probably better suited for the eyes and ears of physicists due to its highly technical nature. I will say that my journey began with the purchase of a 200-year-old farm with a large barn in Cashtown, PA, population 450, and a mere stone’s throw from the town of Gettysburg. I had studied the writings of H.G. Wells for a good many years, so the barn served me well and I was able to design and construct a vehicle that would enable me to travel through time. Given the technological advances which have occurred since Wells’ era, my time machine was of vastly superior capabilities. I performed three successful test runs to Gettysburg....
