Spring in the air Butterflies, flowers and afternoon tea That and the sound of the lap of the sea You in a chair and the scent of the air I in a glare at the sight of you there. Those eyes that wink like a butterflies wings A voice like flowers that airs in the spring The sip of exotic raspberry tea All that and more at the edge of the sea. What could be sweeter or nicer more braw Then you and your essence, me in rapport A day in the sun like the warmth of a dream Listening to rhyme and the scheme of new theme. I see it in signs the end of the cold The coming of spring beginning of bold. The downing of strife the sound of a fife The show of crocus, beginning new life. The sign of a dragon shaking his head A randy dragon that thought he was dead. |

Seymour, sounds like some Butterfly is in serious trouble in the heart department. Boy, I hope the flight patterns are in sync. Hugs, ME |

Those eyes that wink like a butterflies wings A voice like flowers that airs in the spring The sip of exotic raspberry tea All that and more at the edge of the sea. ===================== A day in the sun like the warmth of a dream Listening to rhyme and the scheme of new theme. I see it in signs the end of the cold The coming of spring beginning of bold. ===================== The sign of a dragon shaking his head A randy dragon that thought he was dead. ===================== OH MY ... OH SY ... oh *sigh* me thinks you've taken the words from a butterfly........ ~Butterfly in search of Spring~ ~Butterfly on a rainbow~ *winkiewinkie* I knew we shouldnt have let randy get in the raspberry tea *L* and Sy ... this poem is definatly a groovy |

Mother, I hope so too, that is the sync of humor. JM, I don't know how he did it but Randy got out again and used my computer and I noticed the raspberry concentrate is down quite a bit. I can see he's been nipping at it. But how can you be mad at him. When I read the poem I had to laugh myself. WW S Poeminister, Thanks for the nice comment. Sven, Your right and spring is just around the corner. |

Hey Seymour what a beautiful flow this has to it....and the wonderful romance of nature entwined throughout is what makes it sing to me as I read it....love it very much! Always a joy to read the beauty of your work with it's subtle undercurrents.... great stuff !! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

pardon moi ... but I must have been so sprung on the coming of spring that I forgot to put this in me library and I MUST have this in my butterfly collection ( I swear I checked that box) must have had a senior moment *L* *winkiewinkie* Love is my religion, I believe in nothing else. To find that inspiration, live that inner vision. Love is my religion...I believe in you. ~T Kimmel |
