quixote woman of the dawning of sighs
do you ride your magic carpet there
where the tree people are voices in wind
and the birds make songs with their wings

do you kneel on sand castle pillows then
and pray prayers that rhyme in your mind
like the heartbeats of lovers blending souls
and is your god within the folding of your hands

are there windows without glass in walls
that never listen when you tell secrets
and doors that have openings to find
those dark things you hid in the mid light

and do you know the language of the butterfly

Sigh!

You have put your heart into this, dear D.!

The beauty of this will create echoes like thunder within the heart of the quixote woman and she will transform into a butterfly and fly and fly ... to land upon your shoulder and touch your soul.

Magnificent.

Love,
Margherita

I found a dying luna moth Saturday... I couldn't save him, but protected him from the ants while fragile life slipped away.

Reading this poem was like holding that kind of beauty in my hand... a privilege.

The language of butterflies, I imagine, is soft, veiled,
distant ... sotto voce...
