Some Day

Whenever a papery butterfly
alights on a sweet scented bloom,
a rainbow arcs over the desert,
and there's a smile on the face of the moon

When the tiger bee sips from the chalice
of a perfectly formed daffodil,
spring instantly turns into summer,
and the sea becomes perfectly still

When the gentle dove glides over rivers
that mirror his wings like a twin,
the rattle of guns promptly ceases,
and real peace can surely begin

I do not believe in Peace for humans Kaye, however, I do admire and applaud the sensuous beauty of your novel symbolism. The Earth is a violent ecosystem, and humans are not meant for Peace. That all being axiomated, life is truly beautiful in all It's diverse ways, thank Deity. I love your respect for Nature's beauties Kaye. J.A.B.

Thanks Justin. As the poem suggests, I doubt peace for all will come any day soon, but we live in hope.
