Stage One Given is a gleam of fantasies seem It waits but the touch of a butterflies dream. It took but a wink, a think of my mind I offer it you, from a kingdom of kind. It lies in a package of magic wrap Folded in the webs of flowers sweet sap Borrowed from humming birds fresh made today Tied by rainbows the sweetest of May. It sits in a garden of unseen delight Lit by the sun in the warmest of bright Laid on a lawn of the greenest of grass Waiting the sight of the butterflies pass. Next, in the grass sits a dragon quite tame Smelling a flower not a puff or a flame Denuding daisies she does and does not With his eyes closed tight and hatching a plot He says he’s a prince turned dragon by spell Waiting a butterfly to save him from hell. |

Given is a gleam of fantasies seem It waits but the touch of a butterflies dream. It took but a wink, a think of my mind I offer it you, from a kingdom of kind. and OH HOW I LOVE the way that mind winks and unwinds in rhyme divine and ching of chime. =================================== It sits in a garden of unseen delight Lit by the sun in the warmest of bright Laid on a lawn of the greenest of grass Waiting the sight of the butterflies pass.  Next, in the grass sits a dragon quite tame Smelling a flower not a puff or a flame Denuding daisies she does and does not With his eyes closed tight and hatching a plot  He says he’s a prince turned dragon by spell Waiting a butterfly to save him from hell. =================================== For as long as there exists butterflies and Tinkerbells .... you never need worry of devil spells Dare to dream of a dragon given new wings to fly you wont know .. if you dont try.  (and once again you make this butterfly sigh) *winkiewinkie*  me  |

Seymour~ 'Next, in the grass sits a dragon quite tame Smelling a flower not a puff or a flame Denuding daisies she does and does not With his eyes closed tight and hatching a plot' That is sooooooooooo clever ! Always did like your scheming rhymes !  You cavort with frivolity and it becomes you ! Love n' hugs n' doodlebugs ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

although I am not particularly a dragon lover..I do love your opening to Stage one...especially internal rhymes... Given is a gleam of fantasies seem It waits but the touch of a butterflies dream. ...beautiful thoughts, Sy ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |
