Why must winter bring death
With its pristine coat of white
Spirits, cloaked in angel dust
Are grounded from their flight

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

Since it is technically Wordless Wednesday, I opted to use a photo to depict the writing prompt for today. (These words aren’t really here, since it’s supposed to be wordless 😉 )

In the unlikely event, we collide
Pay attention, we’re the ones qualified
As a flight crew, we’re trained for the worst
Remember, woman and children go first
Seats and trays, in the upright position
As we embark, on the next lengthy mission
Should turbulence rock this ship
It’s quite possibly, your very last trip
We suggest, if you want to stay alive
Grab a parachute and out the door, dive
Pray very hard, for a nice easy landing
Enjoy the flight, we hope it’s outstanding

Unencumbered child of night
Moonlight guides your endless flight
Capturing the darkened skies
Reflecting light in ebony eyes
Shine on endlessly in your quest
Your moon, my child, forever blest
