When Shadows gray the time of day and Gold turns silver on the way. Fix your eye on the butterfly And colors will return your eye. Watch them feed on flowers yield See them hover above the field Stand amongst the greenery and Let your mind the peace you see. Give your thoughts unto the power That makes the butterfly and flower. Let its grace just take your hand Just feel a moments understand. There is a time and place for things Beyond our reality stings It’s all a matter of adjust But truly it is a must. Give grace each day moments blend and Transcend to a butterflies wend. |

I'll take your tidbit bit of when mix it with a sigh of then stir in cream with hint of honey and find that we're on the money... then I'll sit back to enjoy the messages that you employ... |

There is a time and place for things Beyond our reality stings It's all a matter of adjust But truly it is a must. ================================= There is more self wisdom and truth in those 4 lines than this mere moth could ever justify with words...rhymed define of a lesson of life--that until learned and put into practice...keeps the moths from being butterflies...until the "art of adjust" is aquired...the moths keep flying blind..and tired. In the lines of your poetry...is found the widsom of self humilty that can set us free. Unknown to us, there are moments when crevices open for time to come alive with begining. |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Seymour, this is so very true, sweet friend, your words always flitter like butterflies and reveals a parallel universe just on the otherside where all the answers of harmony co-exist! (sigh) This is excellent, 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! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Stand amongst the greenery and Let your mind the peace you see. These two lines for some reason, affected me deeply. The whole poem is lovely. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
