Flutter-Bye
~*Marge Tindal*~

If upon the wing of butterfly
you should happen to flutter by
I'd lead you to a rosy view
to keep in the crimson heart of you

If upon that petal you should sit
I'd watch with rapt delight
as the rainbow arch settled over you
and covered you until night

Then upon elfin wing
I'd softly sing my song
so all the world would realize
you were where you surely belong

On crimson petal of the rose
you'd sleep in endless dream
to meet the morning sunrise
with love of endless seem

Thank you, hon.
Elizabeth inspired it with her

She's something else ... she is !

This is wonderfully written by a remarkable poet to another remarkable poet! I just know Liz'll love this one. I know that I could never not love what you write!

Love and hugs,
Lizzie

Marge,
This may have been inspired by "On Wing of Butterfly", but it came directly from your heart. And I thank you for this honor. You can't imagine how much it means to have such a lovely poem written to me. Thank you, dear friend
Love
Liz

Yep,

This one is a keeper... I think I'll steal a line or so OK... Naw, I takin' the whole thing... HA!

ButterfliesDC~
Thank you so much.  
Guess you could call us 'soul' sisters !  

Denise~
I do thank you.  Elizabeth does give 'enchanting' inspiration.

Lucky~
I am so glad that you like it.
ze_keeper has spoken !  

Martie~
Shucks, it just flew to the page in a heartbeat after I read Elizabeth's
'On Wing Of Butterfly' ...
She's still my little 'quipping' partner.
And God, how I love her.
