Of Butterflies and Dragons

Of Butterflies and Dragons

A simple desire,
a matter of fact,
a bit of discovery
kept a spirit intact.

To float on a wish for
with hope as your wings,
this dragon remembers
how to dream within dreams.

Soft as a petal,
as easy as why,
you spread out your heart
then take to the sky.

You see the horizon,
the yellows and blues,
Eternity beckons
this lift within you.

To dance with the stardust,
a dream catcher’s eye,
this dragon remembers
a soft butterfly.

A flutter of lashes
A butterfly’s kiss
A long everlasting
We cease to resist….
