I Dreamt

I Dreamt “I dreamt, I was a butterfly or was I, a butterfly dreaming…” I dreamt I was a butterfly Winging atop enchanted wood O’er droopy willows shy Like I, misunderstood Beauty under misty sky Entranced as only I would As glimmering leaves fall under-hood I dreamt I was a butterfly~ Captivated by a saddened cry I float through trees like robin hood I look to see, what I hear nigh Winging atop enchanted wood~ Delighted, I am, to do some good Young lass beneath the willows sigh I approached her to do what I could O’er droopy willows shy~ Alas, the nerve to flutter by A butter-kiss she couldn’t shoo She lifts her dimples, fascinated by I… Like I, she’s misunderstood~ We play, our reflections On the water still Enraptured by immediate connection I n’er knew such peace, until… …I dreamt~ 2011-07-07 (C) Miranda Lambert Contest: "Daydreams, dreams and dreams" By: Constance La France
