Repost: Twilight Morning I watched the toast, toast brown today The butter as it melted away Poured the coffee just half a cup With cream and sugar filled it up Took the paper read the headlines Something about the aquiline The water level down to low It was a fact that we should know Beware of our water use Just use it but without abuse Some other articles on crime For they were there most the time I tossed the paper to one side When to my lounge where I abide I sat and stretched to wile a while Before I knew I smiled a smile For there she was my butterfly Flapping her wings sighing a sigh She took my hand in fantasy Into a gardens ecstasy She waits for me both night and day Each nap I take she’s there to play One could say I’m growing old To me she is my center fold So more and more I close my eyes To hereby, nearby, butterflies. |

I started my day with you - I think I'll bypass the paper and just enjoy the beauty of your poetry. I can think of no better way to begin a lovely day. Thank you and I have missed you. Alison |

For there she was my butterfly Flapping her wings sighing a sigh She took my hand in fantasy Into a gardens ecstasy  |

Well if its butterflies you want...then its butterflies you shall have... what ever me sweet-Sy-guy wishes... Writing poetry is easy. You need only stare at a piece of blank paper until your forehead bleeds. Douglas Adams |

I see your poetry is still making all the ladies hearts flutter...and a few of the men too from the look of it. I know it makes my heart flutter but then I have seen your etchings. a good commitee can decimate communication. |
