This Butterfly...

~ a romantic scribble ~

 

Once upon a time

                     butterflies fluttered at dawn

 

Delicate wings unfolding

                               in a sky of pastel ribbons

                     and golden morning dew

 

In gladness and joy

                          my heart unfolded too

                                in a fairytale

     of dew kissed dawns

                              and sunny happily ever afters

 

This butterfly…

 

fragile, delicate

                        and yet

 

I found strength

                                 because you believed in me

                    and I believed in you

                                     and fairytales never really end

                             they just dim slowly…

                                         like butterflies fluttering

                       under a pastel sunset

 

So, when I’m missing you

                             and the pulse of sorrow is as slow as my heartbeat

                as fragile as a butterfly…

 

                        I remember

    to always believe in the fairytale

                    …this butterfly

I remember
to always believe in the fairytale
…this butterfly.

I believe in fairy..
You remind me the tale of Peter Pan. I am a great admirer of the theme of Pan. You are a beautiful part of poetry's garden, a blooms flower. Great you are as every one can see your poetry.

Such a beautiful message fluttering over the page into my soul leaving this princess ever still hopeful of her happy ever after.
