In the Garden

Butterflies and you, nothing more beautiful

 

 

In the garden

 

 

Mosaic on the background blue

Subtle as it takes to flight

Gentle breezes lead the path

Shifting quickly into sight

 

Patterns find this open field

Welcoming of long we missed

Drenched in every golden light

Truth upon our eyes now kissed

 

Kaleidoscope placed images

Change with but a tiny move

Frolicking within the flowers

Charming is this early view

 

Hypnotic dreams in tiny visions

Soothing as it saunters by

Like your love does mesmerize me

So to does this butterfly

 

Beauty finds this form and fashion

All of what I see in you

Before my eyes a sweet refresher

Showered by a love so true

 

It takes to wing, this garden creature

Flying off so ever free

Still the beauty it does linger

As long as you are here with me

Butterflies are so beautiful...I love the image of "Kaleidaocope" and "mosaic"...

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Marie.

[TL Boehm]

who doesn't like butterflies. I so enjoyed your depiction of them flitting in a garden. Little bits of kaleidoscopic colors - ephemeral and vibrant. Well done.

[Jack...]

Thank you my sweet friend. I always love it when you stop by.

.... I want to take a walk in a beautiful garden such as this, with a special someone. I hate heartbreak. Thanks for sharing! Wonderful as always.

[Jack...]

Thank you so very much my sweet friend. I hope you find your garden and know, it will be much more beautiful once you enter. Don't you have a book coming out soon?

[eglantine]

aw thanks and yes, next month :)

[Jack...]

Make sure you let me know when it is released and where I can purchase it. Will you have a website where I can maybe purchase an autographed copy?

[eglantine]

My friend is currently setting up a website for me. I know it will be available off of the publishers website, as well as off of Amazon. I'm so nervous for its release!

[Jack...]

Don't be nervous, I am sure it will do great. Oh, Congratulations, I don't believe I've said that to you. I, for one am very proud of you.

[eglantine]

Oh, I needed some of these words right now. Your writing is always a lift to my spiritual side...such beauty in the boundaries of nature and creation.

The freedom of flying is something that is amazing, and the way that you wove love into the mix as well; brilliant, my friend!

[Jack...]

Thank you so much my sweet friend. Happy it helped you to smile.

Love the photo with this poem. The writing - light and peaceful. A nice progressive movement of thoughts and imagery. As BR states, another swooner, my friend!
