Nature's Serenity

I sit in silence with my thoughts to watch the sun slowly rise, on the red ribbon of dawn as it splays its glorious glow across the flowering meadow casting small shadows in motion dancing with the grass Beyond the patch of purple asters, in the morning's mist I see a butterfly drifting with a breeze I have yet felt hovering with brightly colored fragile wings sweeping up...gliding down landing lightly on lavish soft whorls of petals...so mercurial in perfect unison with the morning's breeze I feel now on my skin Oh! To be so free, untangled from the world coming to rest on the sweetness of fragrant scents Please! My delicate friend...take me with you so I may know the peace and serenity of your world As I sit in silence with my thoughts and dream of the freedom I see in your calm aerial world of tender caress 10/1/19 Contest...Writing Challenge-October-Butterfly Sponsor Dear Heart-Wiishkobi Ode

Such a beautiful thought to fly like a butterfly, fly away from all the stress and pain of the chaos. Well said dear poet!
