Dance of the Butterflies

I had received lots of love in years past I have felt all joys and pitfalls of it No pain seems to enter my simple life Love entertains me, that wonderful hit I know my life floats above tender hearts That which brings love, but sometimes avoids me I move quickly this way and that in air I have “dance of the butterflies” simply My life moves in all respects here and there Highs and lows of dance are of gratitude Love escapes my lips to my gracious love My eyes have passion that brings attitude

It's great that you can see beauty in all things that surround you. I'm glad you have this "dance of butterflies" inside of you... much better than having them in your stomach, I image - as the old saying goes. Keep doing what you do, my friend.
