A spring shower was cause to run Until you twirled me in the rain The glow of the moon announced the day was done Until it became a lover's domain A rainbow was a only a colorful view Until it’s arch drew hope in my skies The stars were reserved for a midnight debut Until I saw them in your soft loving eyes A poem was just a talented rhyme Until you wove one just for me A moment was a blink in time Until you shared a few with me My soul was a dwelling for fears Until you promised you would stay My eyes only knew the sadness of tears Until your tender kiss took them all away Love was a license for pain Until you surrounded me in a loving glow Alone was what I wanted to remain Until your heart I came to know |

Ah, Butterflies! This is one of my favorites of yours...and I say that thinking that I may have said that about many of yours that I have read. But, you are truly a gifted poet and I enjoy everything you put to paper. --You can either take me as I am...or you can watch me as I go.-- |

Butterflies......my dear friend, where do you start with something like this! Awesome, exquisite, beautiful, perfect, wonderful, a gifted poet.....all are words that aptly describe this work and the poet. This is fabulous work my friend! One would be so very deeply touched to know that you have these feelings of love! Take Care! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

Digging I went and a vein of gold I found. This is so tender,sweet, and openly sincere that I had to bring it back up. I am rejoicing in the riches that I have found this wonderful morn. |

They say the cream always rises to the top; well this one is a living example I think. Still a wonderful piece, still my favourite! I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on... ~ Jackson Browne |
