butterflies.... my inspiration

Please do not sit on my shouder,

One moment longer.....

for your happines is important to me..

let me admire every curve of you

Your wings so gentle and paper thin

The very formation of you...

Colour, texture, essence and meaning of you...

lie now upon my pillow -

So i can admire,

Soak up the beauty of you,

Your rapture is now speaking to me,.....

i am drinking it in slowly...

admiring your soft, gentle, delicate wings

And oh the colours of you

The colours of you....

I am having difficulty describing

This moment,

As i still admire you...

you fly out of the open window,

Your choice

I laugh to myself,

The net now redundant,

I take up my palette

Paint the very beauty of you,

The colours of you,

The very very colours of you

Your beauty....

The loveliness of you

My painting ....... Of you

you who has now been set free...

I will not be able to concentrate,

the day will lay heavy one me,

As thoughts of you on my pillow,

So fragile,

Beautiful

Within Reach....... though free to go.

The very colours of you...

ah the very very colours of you...

Sorry guys, this is a bit of a skit on men and their writing of women, to me it just get's a little boring at times..... but butterflies how they inspire me.....

so lovely, Poet! My chakra's are fluttering like butterflies! I wonder it they will ever land again and feel peacful. As they are in a fierce dance of passion... *sigh*..

Is this a sign I should lay off the inspiring works of all my favourites? :) I could not bare the thought..

Thanks, lorraine I needed that, my souls really been run down lately. I'm all tough as nails on the outside, but on the inside I've always admired the freedom and beauty of butterflies, lucky buggers.

They may only live five days but to them maybe it seems like 500 years, I hope so, it would be good to live that lifetime with wings grand as those!

I'm not complaining; I love your poetry. But, if you are looking to expand your abilities, you might try writing in a more structured verse format. Rhyme and meter make you search for just the right words to express the same feelings. Meter allows you to express attitudes and can be changed within the poem to express changes. Just a suggestion, I love your work.
