Shades of Butterflies A butterfly had crossed my path I saw it through a due drop lie It thawed the sour of my wrath Distorted in a wine soaked sky My thoughts were thunder full of grime Bolting lighting from my core It melted through the mist of time To catch the wind of evermore And I was drawn into its grace Into a field of greenery Transmitted into time and space A fantasy of scenery It’s there I shed a tear of loss That fell into a shallow well In truth within my bed I toss And cried allowed, my Isabel It’s where I go to seek her soul A flower on a phantom shoal |

too lovely, ethereal even I do think you meant "dew" instead of "due" but if you meant "due" help me understand the subtle intent that I have missed. I especially love the 2nd to last stanza of your sonnet. (It is a sonnet, right?) Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

I learn so much from you each day Sy, and today was no different in starting me off on a positive note. This reminded me of my granddaughters' favorite Christian story I read them as we love butterflies too. It is called, "Butterfly Story, A Spiritual Journey",by Dr. Jeff Sandoz, Copyright 1997. This is our favorite part of that story, quote: Here is a link should you ever find time to enjoy this story, and the main site is our favorite hangout http://butterflywebsite.com/articles/story.htm |
