Dancing On the Wind

"In the absence of complication,
 trials and tribulations become distant memories.
  Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes -
  inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind."

 Simplicity flows in poetic verse
 weaving the flight of butterflies
 dancing on the wind,
 as ink flows on the page

 No webs of deceit
 to entangle these musings
 as silken threads of beauty
 cling to the scented rose

 And the azure sky
 presents endless possibilities
 as a bird on the wing 
 floats past a wispy cloud.
