Watching Today I watch for butterflies On my back with face to the sky Drift with the drifting puffs of white And watch for bursts of words to light. See mist on mist imprint its list And watch for those that will insist Study colors and different hues That brings my thoughts to different views. Those play upon my whimsy mind The frizzy and the dizzy kind Control the beating of my heart What pain and loving thoughts impart. I luxury in quiet rhyme And watch the sand depart my time I warm within the suns embrace For such is the will of my pace. I cannot zap the lap of tide. Nor cap its fall on life’s abide. |

Seymour darling boy, what utter utter joy is this butterfly delight. As always your pen writes me into rainbow dreams where unicorns play with little cherubs and crystal streams of water tumble over rocks spreading diamond drops of light. Truly exquisite writing darling boy, when are you going to write for the fire maidens among us mmm? Okay there really is only one fire maiden when do I get a Seymour treasure. Pretty please……. You do know I love this don’t you ![]() ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

(smiles) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! ![]() ![]() May love and light always shine upon you!

LMAO....I do love 'deer's comment.... And I like this poem....such is the ways as we gracefully get a little older... I like the last two lines best...a good "cap" to the ending... |
