Listen to poem:

Monarch Butterflies

October days with overcast; hauntingly dreary skies Underneath which; I am drawn to your essense breadthwise Strong Northwest winds, become the summers greenest leaves demise Your Auburn eyes; are my vision of monarch butterflies Floating on air, gliding; you touch my arms thwartwise Authentic are our feelings; shared, with no disguise Recharging each other's batteries; in the ways we empathize Your eyes may resemble the color rust; for me, they simply galvanize The way I feel about you, that could not be faked, or synthesized How we both find safety in each other's arms being compartmentalized
