Forest Butterfly

Alone upon a foreign shore, And deep within the forest realm. Gliding just above the forest floor Colors flashing, jerking, flowing Rapture: a maestro moving. Fragile so alive and reckless. Stunning ballerina prancing, Dancing tales of lesser lore Discover overwhelming awe, Give me more and more and more! A sight enchanting to behold Leaves floating on a surface stream. Give me space and time to dream, For memories long forgotten.

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.
