On Dreaming

On Dreaming

They are butterfly wings
delicate and fragile thoughts
mere wisps of memory -
ideas strung like gossamer
between the branches of our minds

embrace this gentle play
daydreamers frittering time
too soon the norms of turbulence 
will weight the hours we spend - 
snatch joy where you can.
