When Butterflies Gather...

When Butterflies Gather...

A Poem by Michael G

When Butterflies Gather...

With just a whisper
to their wings...
they take flight.
They fly upon the lightest
of current...
and flutter above.

Their colors vary
as much as the flowers
they visit.
Their peacefulness
is unmistakable.

To most,
the butterfly is a joy to watch.
Their beauty
makes each of us smile.
But for some,
they mean so much more.

They are the prayers
and the silent thoughts
sent out to someone that's
on our mind.
They are sent
with all the love each heart
can find within.

Butterflies carry hope...
and love.
And when they gather together,
and are sent from every corner;
even butterflies are strong.

I wish I would never have to send
them flying.
I wish I could forever
keep them grounded.

But, that isn't within my power.

So when one you care about
needs their special power...
give freedom to the butterflies
in your heart...
and send them where they need to be.

When butterflies gather...
surely Angel's sing.
