Delicate, the colorful exchange before my eyes Two paired in frilly tingle touch as soft as sighs Again together, speaking language only they can know Again apart, to briefly wander and explore, but never go Docile wings that may beseech a thought to merge Two paired light, so amorous, play closely in romantic surge Again together, sharing of the sunshine and the blossoms sweet Again apart, to briefly linger of the garden walls, and then retreat Delicate, the patterns of communication when in tune and tone Two paired, in brief sweet consecration, rippled as complete and known Again together, seeking of the wind to chase and find the best of chance Again apart, to know the steps and gentle flight, within a butterfly dance Copyright Kkh 9/19/02 |

I've seen that so many times and never knew the words to explain it. Wow! |

I've had a lot of butterflies in my stomach adn I've done lots of dances, but I've never danced as a butterfly ... and I'm supposed to be light on my feet I love it! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Kathy, Through your words, I can see their dance. Flitting here, flitting there....flying side by side...landing...then flitting away once more... Excellently written...very visual poem... |
