Inner Thoughts With butterflies that shelter me in warning, shielding pain to guard with wings that lightly tease, inside they come again. I drink of sweetened words of writ and taste to tempt desire. And as they flutter, rise in me a heat, a warming fire. Toasting me, deliciously on days of barely sun, a buttercup in yellow mist, I soak until I'm done. Relaxed upon the lettered field of cloud words on blue skies, released to fly from inner thoughts, I've seen behind closed eyes. Their freedom gives me mine in turn a stretch beyond the walls until the next dark clouds to form bring back those warning calls... ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

The rhythm in your wonderful piece was not forced one little bit, and made it so enjoyable to read. Wonderful poem and I sure enjoyed it. |
