gold blooms through silver
fusion by pressure techniques
heat both makes and breaks
it’s been a long time
we looked at life in the eye
dreams metamorphosed
love moulded in rings
metal outlasts fragile bonds
co-creating life

P.S.
In the Korean art of keumboo, jewellers fuse pure gold to silver with pressure and heat. The result is an appearance where gold appears to bloom through silver.

I like this Reena and I really liked reading about the Korean jewelry. 💜💜

I like how you connected the Korean art of keumboo as the
melding of two substances, as compared to a marriage of two souls. This is very beautiful. In both, gold is the bond that holds. 💛
