The Butterfly

>                 Exotically pirouetting in the scented summer breeze
                    Daintily coquettish resting in leafy green trees
                    On translucent wings floats flower to flower 
                    Delicately shivering in a cool midday shower ,
                    In the glow of the evening fades quietly away 
                     Hopefully to return some other sunny day <

Stairway To Heaven

The rose may be fading , sweet scent almost gone ,
   petals lying limp, stem covered in thorns 
   surrounded by great love , her smile opens wide , 
   embracing the living, her troubles put aside ,
   storms in the offing , dark days are nigh ,
   her life now is ending , called from on high ,
   time to be going , for now we say goodbye ,
   cheeks deadly grey, eyes weary and leaden , 
   taking the first steps on the stairway to heaven. 


"for a lady family friend who died of cancer"
