for my love rests on wings
of
butterflies
that flutter against the grain
of the wheat that blows wistfully
in the sweet winds of love
that flutter against the grain
of the wheat that blows wistfully
in the sweet winds of love
he waits for me
to
to
transform
he knows the time is near...
i waited for him...
i wait for him still...
yet my transformation is not yet complete
like falling leaves in Autumn
his soul whispers cascade
on the breeze that carries our future
on the clouds that survey our landscape,
on the seas that chart our course
on meandering paths that we will walk
on meandering paths that we will walk
as we greet
covered bridges
where we will stop to kiss
covered bridges
where we will stop to kiss
and atop hay bails
where we'll play
in that old barn that rests up on the hill...
in that old barn that rests up on the hill...
he waits so beautifully
he keeps to himself
knowing full well, that
i am almost there
he's enjoying the flight
yet he longs for me to fly along side him
on wings of butterflies
that carry us forth
to new places.
new dimensions of love
together...

So lovely, as always. Love your use of one of your images - it is beautiful.
Congratulations on being featured in this months issue of Poets and Artists.
Waiting, watching, anticipating, finally sharing, loving, still waiting...is there much else?
Wings so light and sublime can take your love as far as paradise...
Brilliant again, dear Calli.
...I've got a little present for you today in my awards post. :)
sometimes I think transformations need to just get on with it - don't you think? But they move along in their own time but they do eventually happen. Definitely a continuing process. Very nice Calli.
beautiful, Calli!
Wow!!! Loving the words and the picture you paint. You're definitely touching people with your writing.
Thanks for the visit and your kind words!
I'll be a regular!

on wings of butterflies, how perfect. but you, dear girl, are a butterfly in full glory already.
Shadow~ you, dear girl, are a very sweet friend and kindred spirit ...thank you!
Hi Calli, I enjoyed this sweetly
lyrical love poem. The concept
of a true lover waiting for his/her
love to morph into their ultimate
self is beautiful.
