Flights of the Butterfly

Flights of the Butterfly Looking at the butterflies dancing decoratively divine Their wings tickle & flutter the acoustical ambient air Enthralled by their ethereal beauty as they intertwine My eyes drawn to infinity in a pensive peaceful prayer Butterflies within the morning seductive seclusive sun Melodies of motion that move the silent secular heart Blissful flights at depleting dawn have magically begun Shamanist symphonies surrounding served ala carte Exhibits of eternal etchings amidst a life aching archaic They too can achieve upon flights of dimensional dance Wondering works of ancestral art of a masters mosaic For I sit amongst the daffodils and watch as they prance My heart fulfilled with love as they float gracefully away For the rewarding genial gestures thus exist as they play.

Only in the shrine of Nature as we are entranced by its Beauty that we pray in humility for a Light that would flow into a heart and be enabled to perceive divine beauty and bliss! A fabulous enchanting Sonnet! A great pleasure to read! Soar in the beauty of Light Winged Warrior.. my deepest regards. Blessed be always.

To feel the wind, to glide- simply embracing each moment within. Again and again. Yes, I wish to be this free. To be elegance whispering along the sky. Like the beautiful, peaceful butterfly. My Warrior with Wings, your thoughts take me there. I am smiling. :) Love and Flutter-by moments. ~ Brandy

Reading your poem is as delightfully delicious as the reward I received last month when I released 6 Monarchs in flight. I had collected them from milk weed as caterpillars, provided more of the leaves until they formed chrysalis' and then emerged. It was so wonderful to watch them morph into such beauty...Laney
