Spring’s Sky-Blue Morning

there’s two
bufferflies
doing
pirouettes above
my hyacinths
and tulips
fluttering
white reflections
of sunlight

yes,
bufferflies
dancing
a sprung spring
making me sing
deep in my heart
and even though
many are dying
on the fields of battle
God still gives us beauty
to soothe our spirits
and make well our souls

oh, bufferflies,
sweet bufferflies,
thank you for being His servants
when we so often
appear to not be on the side of
love and kindness

in His Holy Name,
may we strive to share the beauty
of His Light,
as you do so naturally

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

So very beautiful! Yes these joyful perceptions of renewal and rebirth give us hope that men too may find Spring within their hearts.

Lovely! I wish I could share God's light like the buttersflies do. But maybe that is what being a poet is all about...

You script the wing beats from the blossoms my dear! TD
