BUTTERFLY

BUTTERFLY

You fly on the wings

Graceful, elegant as time goes by

There is such beauty

That is conceivable so true

Convincingly so true

You never stop for one moment

Flitting, flying around

Just pausing for the nectar

Then fly off

To another distant place

Your life is short-lived

Summer comes around just once

And then you are gone

Leaving sweet memories

To reminice and miss

To astound us

Amaze and value we do

Sit and stay awhile

So that we may enjoy

The moment of bliss

And beauty

'A WARM GENTLE GLOW' made it into the Top Five finalists out of 65,000 entrants

A WARM GENTLE GLOW

The soft lingering flame shining

The warming glow radiating

Like the summers sun

Reminders of day’s carefree days

Lazing by the riverside

The walks in the park

A lover’s stroll hand in hand

The joy and bliss of that sweet, sweet kiss

The warm gentle glow diverging

Rippling, flowing like a wave on water

Spreading to the outer atmosphere

Diffusing, strewing

Like there is something magical, mystical floating in the air

Come, spring, summer, autumn and winter

There will always be

A Warm Gentle Glow
