Languishing |

Languishing Languishing a moments power Like the blooming of a flower It lets the sweet of odor fly To catch a passing butterfly It is a net without the lace But fills a multitude of space. It is a magnet on the breeze That taunts the air with magic tease. It sighs to it in silent lure In the language of the sure And brings it close enough to see And close enough to land on me. It’s then I feed it nectars sweet The honey of a friendly treat That brings it back each time I bloom And leaves no time for endings gloom What sweeter of a moment’s bliss Than touch of a butterflies kiss |

Seymour darling boy, this is again exquisite writing, I love the flow of this washing over my soul like a douche of crystal light. Excellent writing as always, but then you know that don’t you darling boy? Of course you do! Butterflies flutter here and there Landing gently without care Pretty wings in constant flight Decorate the air with light But for faithful and for true You know what you have to do Ask the bee to stop and sip The liquid nectar from your lip Flowers bloom in scent divine Call the butterflies all the time But if you want constancy You have to call the honeybee Marsha You know I utterly utterly adore this it is simply perfect as are you, superb writing excellent use of language and the rhyme and rhythm cannot be bettered. As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |
