 Devante`s Weave..with Love A meeting of destiny’s chance A melding of lost souls Slow and unsure you move on With the fragile newness of fouls Touch and pull back afraid to feel Reaching silently beyond the pain He saw only what he had to loose Leaving you to show what was to gain Words of hope in the night Became more than saving grace How could you ever have known A fight against time you would race The unforgiving clock began to tick Louder with each passing day The wick of death’s candle lit Coming to take him away You gave the love he needed most With each show of gentle heart In turn love and forgiveness bestowed Each moment a sweet work of art He showed you how to love And then how to let go An ultimate gift he requested of you Reaching to a poet’s heart you did show You allowed him to walk on Back to the angels he flew Trying desperately to keep Promises that were begged of you Through him you rained sweetness Drenched with pain and ache Your words no longer your own A new form together they take Giving wings to his spirit and soul Upon your heart his fingerprints I see From your lips I hear his voice ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ ~Repost~ Janet Marie...I love you and through you I love him...it's time for him to be free so he can come home to you...watch him fly and smile, because baby, you know he is watching. Of all the lessons he taught you...I thank him most for unconditional love...because you shared it with me, he is so proud of you...I know this...and you know why~ ~*~ Million Miles These are the days that make up the lifetimes These are the lifetimes that make up generations These are the lifetimes that make up generations These are the days that make up the lifetimes ~Tabitha's Secret~ Gone If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something in me In everything in you ~MB20~ ~It's time to set the Butterfly free....time for him to come Home...It's time to celebrate~ [This message has been edited by Butterflies_dont_cry (edited 12-30-2000).] |

Butterfies dont cry but moths do baby... me thinks there is a rule about making me singe proof mascara run this early me sweet  Thank you for this Holly...YOU KNOW how much the poems you wrote of him for me mean to me.. you were the first one of several in here who have felt his wings brush your cheek ... and as I said on Marks post... I treasure the butterfly poems that have been inspired by my love of him... I know they (you) too see his light. thank you for that my butterfly girlie ... I love you too me SS ... like loving him... thats always been easy... things like this is one reason why. Butterfly kisses and angel wing hugs to ya me Some people find subtlety in strangers if you find anything~let me in Your eyes~you see everything my eyes~I see it all together now~and I know |

BDC, a beautiful poem, for two beautiful souls. In the morning I am a recluse,lost in memory, ideal situations and convulsions... They built pop mart for Bono so he could gaze out across the bay" |

Holly, this is just like you to make our mutual "MOTH" feel the special bond that you have with her and I know that she enjoys the fact that you can share in the celebration with her of him by knowing and loving him through her. You my friend have a true heart of the butterfly angel that has been bestowed upon you and you share it so wonderfully. I know that you know how she is touched by this and that makes the whole world brighter. |

He showed you how to love And then how to let go An ultimate gift he requested of you Reaching to a poet’s heart you did show That was sure the truth! I have been reading all her poems during this time, and no one can write such density of living love as she did for her butterfly. Lovely gift and lovely poem. |
