Butterfly

Fleeting Desire

Tis sweet that love which flies so easily about

A fluttering day dreamer’s delight comes so close

With a quip tongue and a sip of fortune I drink

Drown me, in this ocean of want upon my heart

And say not to my soul that you are but a vision

You are but a lark lighting its way across my path

Will I then set you in my mind’s eye frozen there

Wills I steal you away presently and keep you

I thinks no one else saw you come this way

Sad that I must keep you all to myself sad indeed

No, can’t, must not destroy what is meant free

i love this poem, it has a great flow to it , great job!

[Enigma]

Amazing, and it helps bring a mental picture. It helps bind the soul to the mind and heart,- nice. Keep up the good work.

Delightful, lovely and serene...a true lover's dream! Almost ties the bind between lightning bug and butterfly - well done!
Light,
