A Second Blossoming
Butterfly blown far-far away
by circumstance blackened time.
Leaving the powder of his memory,
driving the nails of life
deep into glassy emerald eyes.
Circumstance is a corner harlot,
her curves will soften with time
and time is the burning ogre-
ask any speckled star or honest sky...
Sip a rose minted stardust dear one.
Dream in color, with love, icy winds always subside...
love brings a golden warmth to winter sills,
plants the heart in the soil of god woven moons,
then devours darkness, allows it to die-
Though his wings were singed by life,
they've always been soothed
by the purity...of your distant prayer.
to sweetly make his way through every jagged pass,
its vapour painting a rainbow to tell you that its very near,
and your wayward mother's pain won't last-
Ride that rainbow back into the conception of its being,
to a freshened world where bitter meets a sweetened end.
and deep within angel ripened time,
you'll both glow like diamonds
at the pinnacle of a common dream...
Where an emerald butterfly lands
softly inside an unfurling heart,
(a second blossoming).
