BUTTERFLY KISSES

I was kissed by a   Butterfly

In the midst of my thoughts

As I stood all alone

Among   hundreds of flowers

Have you ever  been  touched

By   a   Butterfly’s   kiss ?

It’s a flutter

In the breeze

The most tender of touches

That releases

Its   peace

Like memories

That wave

In my dreams of tomorrow

THE WEEPING FLOWERS

Awoke to find

The flowers quietly weeping

The  stream   of tears

Beneath my feet

A path so strong and deep

The flowers and I

Cannot escape

The  darkness  or  the rain

The blooms downcast

Shed many tears

To wash away the pain

The weeping flowers

Reach toward the sky

To seek the slightest ray

And I, too, reach into the blue

 Just like the flowers in rain

WALKING ON PETALS

Walking on petals

And leaves of gold

Beneath my footsteps

The crunching sound

Of twigs and branches

 The Moon greets

The morning Sun

While I drink my morning coffee

Take a deep breath

Inhaling the flower scented air

Mingled with the aroma of Caffeine

The squirrels and birds

Scurry along their way

They are not bothered

By my presence

Sometimes, even stop to pose

What a beautiful day

To enjoy the gifts of God

That allow imagination to  fly

Like the butterflies

In this Sunflower maze of wonder

That is life
