Dancing With Butterflies

"dancing with butterflies" as day breaks with promises butterflies gracefully shadow me causing me to be a ballerina dancing effortlessly by the sea everlasting is this moment of light forever engraved with freedom giving me a breath of oxygen holding the thought to carry on I enlist and follow the dream joining beauty of butterflies knowing they will show the way leading to extraordinary senses making the sun shine and moon glow never a hesitation or missing beat only open windows with possibilities placing my soul alive and free quietly all butterflies fly away resting knowing my spirit is whole sprinkling their grace upon me taking with them darkness and pain SkyWatcher 11-01-23

Adding this one to my FAVs list, Lisa. lovely thoughts and matching images through your poetic words, my dear friend. Butterflies are special to Sara and me. Her dad late in life took to raising them. A joyful experience for him and something that stays with us now that he has passed. Thanks for sharing this uplift poem with us. Hugs, Bill
