Sitting

While sitting silently at home
I let my mind go forth and roam
And thoughts did sit a table’s treat
A gourmets dish with savored meat

I held my rind of circumstance
And there I left my mind to dance
Upon the ruffles of its lace
And warming embers of embrace

It brought a smile, this muse this wraith
It seemed to form by simple faith
This sheltered cove this sandy Isle
A moth a butterfly this wile

That twittered on the edge of glean
Just beyond my touch of scene
And brought a sigh unto my eye
I did not wish it wave goodbye

My butterflies grow fewer now
Fewer those my years allow

Butterflies flutter still in my stomache when I feast on love...

Brilliant as usual...

Mr. T. ~

I don't know why, but when I read your title, "Sitting" I cracked up! I literally broke out laughing. I have to think on this a bit while I'm here just "sitting". lol Oh, no! Here I go again.

It's a lovely poem but I guess I have a bad case of the gigglepussies this beautiful late fall day!

Yes, I am a little bit nutzoid at times! ~ but my excuse is that it is because I'm creative! lol

Love ya!

There's no need to wave goodbye ...
the butterflies return to *sigh* for Sy.

When I'm with you my eyes are so wide ...
you reached right in my head and turned on the light inside
turned on the light in my mind.

Hi Seymour...damn fine piece this morning my friend. You make me smile each time I get to read your stuff. It's like reading myself sometimes. Not that I can do these themes as well as you do...but sometimes I believe this is how my work will look when I have but matured just a little. Bravo my friend! Very well done.

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!
