A matter of seeing

I sent a butterfly to tell you hello,
I sent you feathers within the winds that blow,
I whisper in your ear, when you're feeling blue,
Just to let you know, I'm always there for you.

I sent a bird to put a smile on your face,
I sent laughter, to remind, life's not a race,
I squeeze you ever so tight when you're down,
Just to remind you, I'll always be around.

I sent a bumblebee to lighten your heart,
I sent wishes in hopes nightmares would depart,
I walk beside you, as pride fills my being,
I am here, it's just a matter of seeing.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
