She dances, like a butterfly flutters

Caught on a simple breath of a breeze

Graceful as the flowers, she is blooming

Adorning meadows, she moves with ease

Soaring, like a bird in flight, she glides

Her life, a delicate balance, unbounded

Floating on the clouds, she is light as air

While trying to keep herself grounded

I kneel before you, butterfly
With your beauty, I am awed
I dare not look upon your face
I am not worthy, I am flawed

You are perfect, in your symmetry
Your wings, are a span of glory
I am nothing, compared to you
Just a writer, with another story

Allow me to glow, in your iridescence
Let me float, on the wisp of a breeze
Carry me away to your distant lands
Over mountains, meadows and trees

I will take in all the wonders
That lie below the clouded skies
In the valleys, dales and canyons
Let me see them, through your eyes

You kneel before me, butterfly
Yes, to take me away with you
Letting me fly, upon your wings
It’s really all I ever wanted to do

Teleporting Topless – #poetry #JanuaryWriting

Imagine what life would be like

Soaring topless, into the sky

Nothing but my trusty camera

Teleporting me, upwards, oh my!

Scanning the clouds for faces

Catching their wink, as they pass by

Stretching out into wide open spaces

Just my arms and me, what a high!

There’s only one thing, and I worry

What happens if someone should spy?

As I land on the top of the mountain

My wings spread, like a butterfly

Perhaps I should have kept my shirt on

I wasn’t thinking when I took to the sky

So I’m here, in all of my glory

Of this, I can never deny
