Seeing the beauty, of life so small and frail.
I feel your heart in this, like that butterfly
reveiling its inner self with each paused, spread of its wings.
You open your heart to all of us here, as it sings..
Thanks for sharing this,,and all your poems,,and I know I already commented,,but,,,,you have much that can be added to for your love.

"Butterflies"


They come like the seasons and spill not only relief,
But love, hate, joy, the tears I weep.

I cannot stop the flow, mixed with a red
No tourniquet will hold, clot not till I have fed

My need to expunge all I never said to those,
Who like greedy vultures, picked flesh from bone!

No longer do I question, forced, I go with it,
Days, sometimes weeks, waking at night to pen

All that I would not say from fear of what I know not,
Just my pounding heart and the butterflies like knots!

With each word I write, they light on the smallest leaf,
Spreading their wings, exposing beneath

Their wondrous beauty the opposite, creatures of the night,
Ugly, worn, my fleeting glimpse of life takes flight!

Leigh,

You need to get published I think. Do you know why my tatt is a butterfly? They are a universal symbol of freedom from oppression.

Love,

Terri

Hi Sweetie

What a peaceful thread to stop in and visit. You are a blessing!

I'm listening to some beautiful classical and it fit in so well with your words.
