Scarce Blues

Scarce Blues

 

Although only temporarily

blinded

By the glow from her sun

stoked hair

The last thing he recalled

before passing

Was a portion of sky with  

a small diagonal crease

and a tear ….

Overflowing it was

with a million or more

jigsaw shaped pieces of

delicate blue

Although strangely enough

but most

decidedly true

Not a single kiss blown

forget-me-not petal

was in sight ….

And for a moment, it seemed

he had been

desperately wrong, for in truth

it was merely

the opening and the closing

of rare

blue butterfly wings

On which

everything so gracefully

floated and fluttered, then flew

Oh’ what distinctly flawless

yet fragile

and endangered

near perfect blue things ….

It is only whilst seeing the glow from her sun for the last time that we can see the joins of the facade we thought was reality but was actually the matrix trying to warn you that it was all just a dream.
Well, it explains why I keep waking up in the shower wondering where I am 😊

The opening and the closing of rare blue Butterfly Wings...
is a beautiful way to describe our Passing. Peaceful Prayers
are ascending that Angels will keep your Journey here to be
smooth and free to cross our threshold. tenderly, Pat

"song sung Blue" every garden grows one.

"me and you are subject to, the blues now and then"
we don't always understand them...but we feel them there...."

when our hearts fall on bad times.

In the Confusion. Yes , the Sky is falling. tenderly, Pat
