Dance With Me Like Butterflies

Fresh dew has kissed the flower bed,
As early sun brings forth the day.
And songful birds,
Begin to play.
And I think of you...

The gentle night begins to fall.
Bright stars peek out to say hello.
The tender moon,
Makes all aglow.
And I think of you...

Whisper to me your poetic song.
Breathe words of love to my eager soul.
Pen my heart with lovers lines.
And dance with me like butterflies.

This is dedicated to a very special friend of mine ~~~He knows who he is~~~ and to the sweet love in his life. May their love continue to bloom into beautiful gardens.

Juls-you honor your friend deeply and I just hope that he appreciates you as much as you seem to appreciate him.  This is one sweet love poem and it is going in my private library.  These lines are pure poetic grace and soon to be classics I am sure.  Absoulutely beautiful.   

Fresh dew has kissed the flower bed,
As early sun brings forth the day.

Pen my heart with lovers lines.
And dance with me like butterflies.

Mark, I'm sure he appreciates me just as much as I do him. And your words, they're so wonderful and flatter me much. But the praise goes to this inspiring couple, you might even say, they gave poetic life.

Juliet~

What lovely verse.

'Whisper to me your poetic song.
Breathe words of love to my eager soul.
Pen my heart with lovers lines.
And dance with me like butterflies.'

Muchly enjoyed.

Simply beautiful, one of the best I've seen!

God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown
