Oceans Demure

Butterflies dance in Autumn rain
they see only colors
and know not hidden pain-

Revered tears sayeth the sea
moonlit lace of what you were to  me
time is shadowed
encased in fear
but born again when you are near-

Oceans demure that ravage the heart
where sand and sea
doth never to part-

One as the river
that sings to the wind
touched by ones heart
that freedom did send-
