Journeys Way

A Poem by Kimberly "Melody" Carney
"

I write to free my soul, to give a glimps of me. I follow no rules when writting, it's what sets me free.

"

MonarchAster_JC

A butterfly landed on me,

I never get lost for too long.

As I watched the bird in the tree,

it’s pure unforgettable song.

 

Nature has a way to call me;

it shows me my soul is not wrong.

I listen, for it sets me free,

there will be a day of new dawn.

 

Follow me on this journeys way,

Misty waters cool your soul.

The end will be a brand new day;

the earth bares food to make us whole.

 

Follow the mother deer and foal,

Be careful what you do and say,

Look deep in the earth like the mole,

Or the colors will turn all grey,

 

I’m a soul within this frame

Simplicity is what I seek

Wisdom will be my only claim

I’ll be full of knowledge, yet meek

~Melody

I really have a strong love of nature poems. One of my favorites is by Alfred Lord Tennyson "The Brook". From the sounds of this poem, you'd probably appreciate it as well. I found it when I was a little girl in an antique book that my mother ended up giving me years later. This poem runs along the same emotional wavelength that that one does. Just enough calm to lull me into sleep I think. I can fall asleep with the images behind my eyelids and share this with my hubby in my dreams. :) Lovely imagery I think.

a shiver of sharks, lay below the boat, as we paddled for the palm trees rowing with Melody,

This poem is indeed soothing and relaxing, a good antidote for stress and chaos. It also reminds us of the need to observe nature and learn from creation. Closely watching something of the natural world can force us to slow down, breath deeper and recharge our emotional batteries.

A beautiful photo. I see few butterflies in my part of Michigan. I remember as a child seeing hundred like in the photo. I enjoyed the poem and your thoughts. Thank you for the photo and the excellent poetry.
