    A touch so gossamer I have never felt, but it stole my heart and made it melt.

    My mother's hair has turned to lace. Grey gossamer now frames her face.

    I'd prefer the steel cage of a hard truth to your soothing gossamer of lies.

    A caress of a silky strand, the gossamer touch of his hand. My heart raced, my thoughts unchaste. His intention hazy. God, I’m going crazy.

    His same question, my same answer, again and again. Athropos clips the gossamer threads of his memory faster than Mnemosyne can weave them.

    Undeceived by the gossamer nightgown, he deftly seized her concealed knife and pinned her to the bed. "Talk!" hissed Bond.

    Hi my lovely, would you model for me in a gossamer negligee if I bought it for you? How about if you just strip, and I imagine the gossamer?
