Rattle and Prattle The keys make rattle with the prattle of my mind They wake a web of cobweb, a tattle of a kind To catch a butterfly that caught a poet’s sigh To bring her closer to the wonder of my eye I see her on the run flipping colors in the sun Collector of the nectar of flowers one by one How beautiful the hues that dance the morning’s dew There is no better peaceful, than butterflies in view. They flit and they sit and they spore a dance of awe Floating in the heavens and resting on the floor There are times in dreams I too soar up to fly And rest among the flowers and catch a lonely eye. I rattle and I prattle and I build a store of words By subtle praise of phrases that soar the sky like birds Catch the eye of other dreamers flying in the breeze Luring them with cooing sounds that sigh among the trees. I change the night to misty light by the power of praise And find a world of freedom in the turning of a phrase. |

JM, Dear Winkie me, I see you in the field sipping nectar tea. Raspberry I'm sure it's the one you serve to me. We sit among the flowers hour after hour Just drinking nectars tea in our dreamers bower. WW R S |
