 I Spoke Your Name To Butterfly ~*Marge Tindal*~ I bid the sun this dawning to gently warm your day To tender you in comforting play of healing golden rays~ ~*~ I offered a prayer to bird on wing as he gifted melody of sing Notes of joy he promised to bring to gaily lift your heart~ I spoke your name to butterfly as she fluttered softly by Asked of her the reasons why some thing's seem so hard~ ~*~ Then I knelt in earnest prayer that your burdens He would bear Touching you with His loving care to bring you safely through~ Butterfly came and took my prayer straight to Heaven - winging air All the love that I could share came gently drifting home~ ~*~ I spoke your name to butterfly as she fluttered softly by She tipped her wings in gentle sigh saying, "All is right with friend " ~ ~So earnestly this one is gifted to those who have need~ September 2, 2002 ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (09-02-2002 12:58 PM).] |

Sometimes, in the reaching out to know that there is a watcher, a keeper of the heart, we find it, even when not meant for us, and the butterfly comes back with those very sounds, of all is right, upon the wind.... |

Marge Funny, I was just out in the garden..and a beautiful Monarch came swirling around me...I thought a message was coming to me from someone (Michelle)...perhaps through you....the butterfly was followed in flight by a burnt orange dragon fly...who perched on a stem and looked at me with a thousand eyes. Your poem is a heart's blessing of friendship and love, even if it wasn't for me...it is mine.  |

I had reason to believe it may be carrying many messages ... thank you for letting me know it did~ Magnus~ You know I really appreciate that thought~ Thank you~ Enchantress~ *winging* thoughts back to you gal~ SweetSuzieQ~ I so love you~  Seymour~ You say so much with a *hug*~ Thank you sweet poet friend~ *HUGS* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I used to talk to butterflies too dear...then I got arrested, they took away all those freshly picked mushrooms, I told the officer I was on a field trip from an agricultural school, they didn't believe me?....Seriously though, I love the poem and I can relate...really I can.... |

 How beautiful and wonderful the thought that one could send a thought, a prayer on the wings of a butterfly and recieve the message back...."all is well" Such a beautifully written, comforting and inspiring poem. Thank you for the gentle thoughts. Sherry Gardner Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. |
