A Moth Dreams Butterfly This butterfly has colored the breeze Has buttered the ease of appease. Has changed the hues of my what and who’s Has challenged the reign of my views. She has thrown stardust over my mind And rhymed it in a web of bind. Held by hairs of my chiny-chin-chin. Twirls me round in a spin with a grin. I am helpless and hopeless in greens Wander and wonder meadows serene. My eyes a glaze with her magic ablaze And I gaze and I gaze and I gaze. And she whispers me a brush of lips Like the nectar of honeys sweet sips. I sit and I dream the edge of a stream In the rills and frills of fantasies gleam. Be there the moth that dreams butterfly It is I, it is I, it is I. |

I come quietly sneaking in just to see the thought and whim of a butterfly-moth's serene replies and to delight my sun-filled eyes... |

I loved the flow in this poem, your pen is as graceful as a butterfly. "Build a man a fire, he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life". Terry Pratchett |
