Autumn's stillness of scarlet and gold dawn
Burst open and wanders upon the lawn.
A graceful butterfly flutters alone
In the garden's foliage and fruit grown,
Under a spreading tree's playful leaves blown.
A special secret the garden does own.
A fairy in a world of magic fed.
Braided crimson pansies crown her small head,
Waves of chestnut hair, the calming wind spread.
A gown of small green leaves and velvet red
Rose petals, sheer gossamer wings outspread.
A small old gold filigreed Celtic cross
Around her neck, tied in green Irish moss.
A shimmer of awe on its lovely face
In love with nature, a childlike sweet grace.

My eyes look for you
My heart bleeds the truth
My spirit enters your soul completely
When I see you I fall in love all over again
The closeness I feel is excitement uncontested
To feel you next to me is like heaven real
As I find myself lost without your feel
The feel of your skin, to hold your hand
To breathe your scent and kiss your lips
I find myself falling in love all over again
To hold you tight I await my time in life
But missing you is a natural occurrence it seem
The dreams I have, the plans I dream
I want more than I bare just waiting your love
But most of all, my heart flutters with life
And loving you is a dream come true
As everyday, love's dream of being two
Used to be a team player
Took a protective stance
Learned they were advantage takers
as only I advanced
There I was lending my ear
left talking to myself
yet again I’m seeing clear
I have nobody else
All the things I’d do for others
are never done for me
yet still they would mutter
we all act mutually
Telling me we were brothers
and valued equally
Oh I’m touched (sarcastic) flutters
knowing I’ve only me
what’s a friend who doesn’t give
and then deserves a favour
talks of a life they do not live
and paints their friends a failure
To self centred for a chat
they simply say don’t worry
make out you overreact
silenced in a hurry
Or they’ll label you a liar
talking for attention
laugh and say you’re desperate dire
mocking your fabrication
Expecting others show interest
when they’ve something to say
simple things that cause them stress
they speak of everyday
They’ll tell the world that they are selfless
always giving their time and wisdom
how every friend they have is hopeless
needing help with each decision
and how they cannot give away
as much as they have given
when they are suffering today
wore out by all their giving
The hero seeking sympathy
who gives so much to others
even when they make believe
these stories of what suffers
as they have a desperate need
the validation heroes offer
but now for once selfishly
the hero runs for cover
Aren’t they just a worn out angel
with friends that don’t deserve them
sad pathetic lying scoundrels
tolerated though a burden
without ever appearing thankful
taking all they’re given
for you must be so truly mental
if you believe this angels vision
Never trust the person
who complains they give too much
be aware you’ve heard them
sound completely out of touch
Come lay your heart now over mine
Cause it to feel the rhythmic beat
Let your nearness revive…bring life
Electric shock of body heat
My heart is faint, about to die
Weary, sure to give up this fight
Come lay your heart, love, over mine
Bring monitor to life with light
Heart over heart the beat transfer
From your quickened electric pace
My heart catches the vital spark
As I look up into your face
Lips to lips now resuscitate
Your limbs on mine now intertwine
Body upon body infuse
Call me back from heav’n divine
My heart flutters and starts to beat
Intensifies, responds to kiss
Body tingles with healthy glow
Heart beat is strong… nothing a miss
When life imparting work is done
You slowly start to pull away
Checking for vital signs of life
Your face over my heart must stay
You listen for the rhythmic sound
Your head rides on my heaving breast
My breaths of life your hair caress
Your head turns as you kiss each crest
My body, soul, and mind refreshed
I reach for you, love reignites
Now my heart lies on top of yours
Resuscitating from the heights!

Canopy of blue above me,
Cirrus clouds, like mist on high;
Ripples dapple down the river,
Tiny whitecaps drift on by.
Distant cars flash ‘cross the bridges,
Airplanes glide as smooth as glass;
Joggers bounce on brand-new sneakers,
Seagulls swoop with grace and sass.
Tranquil breezes ruffle weedlings
Sprouting in the sidewalk cracks;
Children pedal bikes in training,
Anxious parents at their backs.
Flag across the water flutters,
Pigeons perch upon the rail;
River traffic’s non-existent –
Not a motor, tug or sail.
Easter Sunday in Manhattan
Is as peaceful as they come.
Gone is all the noise and hubbub;
Missing is the normal thrum.
Sitting quiet in the sunshine,
Soaking up the springtime air,
I’m content to pass the hour
In a mood relaxed and rare.
A birdsong floats upon the breeze
And flutters softly through the trees
What music once my words did make
My muse once sleeping is awake!
My words with wings that used to fly
Have fallen from a somber sky
A gust of wind is all it'll take
My muse once sleeping is awake!
It left without a word to say
My skies once blue, have turned to gray
Then thunder roars, I feel the shake
My muse once sleeping is awake!!
I wander blindly through a mist
Trying to find the words I missed
Yet through the clouds a light will break
My muse once sleeping is awake!

I had heard about the legend of her lips,
so, at the sight of vermillion moonlight,
shimmering on turquoise ripples at twilight,
my soul ventured, craving the sighs of her sips.
Fate led towards a path of wooden shutters,
amidst the silence, silken whispers enticed,
upon her vision, all speech was sacrificed.
My heart danced like velvet butterfly flutters.
Her lips resembled two petals yearning for rain,
with an innocent blush resting on their tips,
curved liked sacred, unwritten poetic scripts,
I surrendered my muse for her kiss to drain.
They seemed to tremble, waiting to be explored.
An unspoken allurement composed through her eyes,
where she veiled a threshold of nectarous cries,
like dawn, we merged as the moon and sun adored.
In neroli mist we melted like molten gold,
lost volcanic spirits spilling in lava lust.
Her wildfire swept my senses like a spiced gust,
as hummingbirds, hummed about secrets untold.
There was a sinful sweetness in her caress.
In her sanctum, I forgot the essence of 'me,'
as her taste turned a blank page into poetry.
A rendezvous, which ylang ink cannot confess.
Beneath cerulean skies where dreams take flight,
A wondrous blue butterfly, enchanting sight.
Radiant in her grace, she charms the view,
A living gem amid a garden bathed in hues.
In a delicate dance, she flutters to and fro,
Whispering secrets only butterflies know.
In the language of butterflies, I'm unsure,
Does she sense the love that makes my heart endure?
With vibrant colors, she paints the sky,
Her smile gives strength to reach new heights to try.
Yet, uncertainty cloaks this fragile chance,
Will love's wings lead us in a destined dance?
Oh, you are my blue butterfly, enchanting and free,
I hope someday your heart will soar with me.
In this garden of feelings, I patiently wait,
For the embrace of the blue butterfly, love so great.
I promised one day I will find her again,
In the meadows of destiny, our love will remain.
Though time may pass and distance grow wide,
In my heart, for my blue butterfly, I'll bide.
Be it a tiny butterfly flutters near wild flowers
Or big fat flying foxes hanging off the lofty trees
Be it a family of bulbuls relishing showers
Or a mischievous monkey devours fruits, smiling with glee
Be it a single purple heron awaiting the dawn
Or the nonchalant coots floating in the tranquil pool
Be it a herd of deer inhabits the engrossing lawn
Or the picturesque peahens thrash out to frame novel rules
Migrant birds' air trails while enduring perilous journey
Gymnastics of endemic egrets in the evening sky
Wonderful wild flowers glisten amidst the shrubs ferny
And the serene water birds in lake, the feast for the eyes
Intermingled with animals out there in forest wild
Every little birds and mammals make our earth revive

The sun yawns in the horizon as it flutters its eyes
Honey – yellow, orange, and shades of red
as it goes into a deep slumber as the moon awakes in the skies.
Heaven vast upon the seas
a pellet of darkest blue violet to a dark inky storm,
Shearwater skim closes the waves in flight by the breeze.
While angels weave and caress in loving warmth
of strength and comfort, an unconditional loving squeeze.
Our Earthly home
Our paradise,
Our Eden,
Our heaven.
A place full of sadness
A place of happiness
A daily reminder
A promise
Heavenly Angels protect,
Meant to be kept for eternity.
Lighting forks across the night skyline,
the rumble of thunder sounds around.
Angels pure of love and where they're most abound.
They're always nigh an angelic sign.
