There's a gleam in my Butterfly's eyes these days Maybe even a glint of sunshine is seen coming her way A spring in her step to match the lightness of heart My Butterfly is more than ready for a fresh new start Now I'm not saying everything is peaches and cream Some hurts never go away Always be a bad dream Butterflies-dont-cry sounds good but only a fool believes Look behind the words when you read her haunting weaves The yesterdays are being replaced by a bright new tomorrow A friendly face Smiles not frowns Even a shoulder to borrow A true helpmate who understands the pain and shares laughter To learn to trust Even feel All things new to her Do you know how painful it is to see your baby slowly die To never be able to stop the killing of the soul as Butterflies cry Now another is holding the light at the end of the tunnel Helping her heal Making it all right Giving her heaven after hell My blessings I give and ask only a couple of request Care for her and her children Try to understand her stress Don't change her Love her for herself Be strong but gentle Because within this Butterfly a heart of gold does dwell |

Dear Lady, as most in this site know, I am the mother of Butterflies-dont-cry. Things are looking so much better for her that I had to share it with all of you. You can share this with any that you want to with love, ME |

I know there is a story here that I don't know, but it is nice you can write it out in poetry. Joyce |

I can really feel a sense of loss here...but you've expressed the sadness with a hint of hope. I hope this leads you a little further into your path of recovery!

My Butterfly, I am so glad you liked this. I had to let you both know that I am happy for how you both are doing. Love and hugs for both, Mom |

reposting this for Mark B: Holly Blue's Song Rope Orion and stretch it across the Milky Way Paint fields of blossoms on the canvas of heaven Use a thousand languages to find the words to say Take a numeral in infinity and multiply it times seven Capture a midnight tornado in the power of all it's might Visualize the world as you would see through an eagles eye Bottle the brightness from every star in this Autumn's night Take the beautiful song of unicorns and mermaids that cry Dive the depths of darkness encased in the bottomless sea Pan for gold in the streams of angelwings in threads of lace Count the needles in every haystack upon your bended knee Peer into blackholes sharing tunnels from regions in space If you were to do all of this with open eyes and tender heart If you could just imagine the touch of what all of this brings If you were to look into a butterflies soul each and every part Then you would hear the song that Holly Blue's heart sings Mark Bohannan ========================================= I know the above words to be true but no words could ever express how elated I am that she has found someone to walk hand in hand beside her and share all this beauty and love with. I can think of no one who deserves this happiness more than her. Mother Earth, your poem shows the love as well as the talent in every verse. I hope you dont mind me sharing the happiness with you. Well written and expressed. Mark [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (01-13-2002 10:13 PM).] |
