Ode to Blue

In the silence of my heart
You reside
Gently allowing
My feelings to surface
From beneath the crystal clear blue lake
To dare to dream
A walk among the fresh smell of the forest
With all its beauty
To catch a glimmer of a ray of the sun
And to hold within that glimmer of hope
Of what could be.

To allow inside where it is safe to feel 
The miraculous love that lives there...
Quietly, patiently,
To feel the passion that surges forth 
From the Mother Earth's body
Wanting to share in the pleasure of her beauty 
With someone.
Watching as the butterflies flicker as they go by 
And to feel the flutter is to know
That I am still alive
To know that flutter is love 
Still lives, and that someday....
That butterfly will land on my hand.
And sit there comfortably 
Safe knowing...believing, 
That it will never be harmed in anyway.
Yes blue, you reside in the silence of my mind.
Gently, passionately, lovingly, 
But just in the silence of my mind.

***** This poem is dedicated to someone who I shared my feelings, my thoughts, and caught my heart; but never knew how much and never will...
When spirits connect on a deeper level than the physical, the feelings can be so much stronger than usual, for you are knowing the spirit inside, not the picture outside. *****

SO TREAD GENTLY, WHEN SHARING YOUR HEART WITH ANOTHER
