Dew filled mists gently soar
Upon painted butterfly wings
Moonlight brushed glittery gold
Bathing a jewel toned horizon
Clouds laced within midnight skies
Giant oaks support the heavens
The foliage crimson, fiery, blazing
Falling in a harvest rainbow
Streams bubble with elfish laughter
Their eyes gleaming within the foam
Fae whispers kiss a sultry breeze
Wings fluttering with temptation
Starlight sweeps fluidly
Like tearstains upon navy silk
Never completely erased
Visions silver framed
Within my wandering memory
Lost once, but flown back
To my weary soul
Upon painted butterfly wings.

I like this stylistic departure from your recent works. Free verse rarely grabs my attention, but this does it well. Good deal my friend.

This was beautiful.... I closed my eyes and listened for the first time with my heart, and I heard the sounds you speak of, and upon opening them my eyes truly saw the wonderous spectrum of colors glowing brightly before me.

Truly enjoyable.
Thanks for sharing.
