Sandra Adams Poet Rhyme

Now My Wings Can Soar In the Sky

a caterpillar in leaf's hold
spins within walls of brownish-gold
emerges in whispering spry
now my wings can soar in the sky

landing within fields of soft white
pure beauty beneath dawn's mid-light
close my eyes...malinger in sigh
now my wings can soar in the sky

you unfold in shadows of mind
memories of life and death twined
you sussurrate as death draws nigh
now my wings can soar in the sky

spirals of emotion now fall
as i see you within death's call
murmur with night a last goodbye
now my wings can soar in the sky

Hugs, John Sandra Adams July 13, 2019 at 10:28 AM Thank you John...my muse has been fickle, I set out to write for a contest and she goes with a different one. I was pleased with this one today when it came to me! Hugs

John Hamilton July 13, 2019 at 8:54 AM Wow, this is beautiful Sandy, I see another win with this one, love the refrain! Great vocab too sussurrate malinger great words. Sandra Adams July 13, 2019 at 9:00 AM Thank you John, this one appealed most to me of the four refrains perhaps because it was easier to work with for me ! I didn't want to over use any words so needed to somehow tie the refrain in without it sounding out of place! I appreciate your comment and visit, especially because rhyme is more difficult for me! :) hugs
