Blue Butterfly Wistful bounds the wind this day Blissful soundings stay my ear. Shadows dance upon the dew Every twist to me is dear. I watch each day in colors last Rainbows for the eyes to see Glory of the day in cast Storied by the stars at sea. Wander in a wonderland The mystery of exist Making castles in the sand Taken by the tides insist. The tide sweeps close to my door Eats away the founding vain Feet now wet upon the floor Measure each and every grain. I see a butterfly of blue My hand lifts up to stay its view. |

Sunshine, Thank you dear. *L* Sea, Sweet comment, thank you. Charisma, Thank you dear. *L* JM, Your words are like a butterflies flight. And I never quite get them right. But my feelings are a steady flower Comming from an Ivory tower. Winkiewinkie Love |

Seymour  Neverending Words in blending Butterfly thoughts Flutter from penning Blue on wing in rhyme Touching hearts in time Always in truest measure Thoughtful verse of treasure Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
