Heart Flutters

I've read many sad tunes

           written quite a few,

when my heart flutters

    through your life chapters 

       to reminisce your memories,

butterflies arouse to float on zephyrs

         easing the formlessness of my soul

Author's Note

On a lighter note, the pic moved me to think of the lovely memories, even in death, they live on in our hearts.

Hmm statistically it is shown that people tend to cling to their better memories no matter how horrendous that particular time period was I guess we were meant to be resilient when it's all said and done we all like to go back the old times whether good or bad to get a bit of Heart Flutters Great writing Frieda

[Frieda P]

Always cling to the best ones, sometimes the other just shove their way in, thanks Deron.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

But the poem is not as heavy as some you have penned. If memories evoke butterflies on zephyrs that is a recognition of the joy of having known someone you lost.

[Frieda P]

There's always butterflies fluttering by John, sometimes they just get lost in the fray. Thanks so much.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

It is your job to keep them in the forefront dear Frieda however hard!

[Frieda P]

Not to worry, I ALWAYS have you to remind me!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Only because I care about you. You have a lovely heart.

[Frieda P]

Are you trying to make me cry now John?....♥

[John Alexander McFadyen]

No I want you to be a butterfly and rise on the zephyr above the hurt and give yourself the life you deserve. You are a sucessful woman in business transalte that into life and love. I for one would love the poetry you wrote from that position.

[Frieda P]

You're killing me softly John....

[John Alexander McFadyen]

with his song.......................telling my life with his words, killing me softly with his song, killing me softly.....with his song!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

"when my heart flutters
through your life chapters "
A lighter poem from all life's sad chapters on the positive outlook you are trying to grasp amid all your loss and pain. So your heart is trying to flutter like a butterfly trying to find a soft spot to land . Very nice as always...:)

[Frieda P]

Thank you my friend, seems in times of grief we grab onto anything that will keep our heads above water.

[Sami Khalil]

Wow. That is so true...You are welcome...:)

[redflutterby]

Aww....such a sweet and deeply touching little piece to brighten a Sunday morning. Whatever you write its always taken to the full breadth of feeling. Nothing held back. Question...did you mean though or through in that 4th line? ;-)xo

[Frieda P]

Awh thanks sweet Red, of course I meant through, will fix it up right now....x

[redflutterby]

Your welcome sweet friend! You rarely make mistakes so wasn't sure. Beautiful poem....glad you are able to embrace the memories in your grief. x

[Frieda P]

I kept changing my mind from 'within' to through, you know a little bit of confusion and there ya go....thanks for the heads up. x

Indeed, as long as we keep the good memories to the front on our minds, the bad will eventually fade and almost disappear...almost, because to completely disappear will never happen, as long as the love felt still lives. Very good Frieda, very beautiful and very you.

[Frieda P]

You know Jack, losing my dear friend brings me to think of the loss of my sister too, trying not to sink too far, thought I needed to write something in honor of all the wonderful memories instead of penning more grief, thanks so much my friend, always appreciate you.

[Jack...]

Frieda, so many good memories wait for you on the horizon as well...look forward while looking behind and find all that makes you smile.
