My fluttering papillon
nurtured by nectar of Spring,
prance upon these petals
he once placed in my hair.
Carry my kisses
blown in twilight breezes
tenderly to his window sill
that his waking eyes
may feel my trembling sigh
and find my scent lingering
sweetly upon his pillow
Echo my voice
mimicking my Southern sound
and before he sleeps each night
softly whisper "Je t'aime".

I learned something new in this piece...papillion.
This has a real soft and soothing quality, it floats like a butterfly with images that delight! I love it!
Thanks for entering and best wishes,

So now I am carried away on the wind with your little papillion. I wonder if I might borrow her to send her on some errands of my own?
Such a soft, tender visitation, touching much more than widow sill, leaving much more than scent on pillow. Truly gorgeous, gal. Also, on a more technical note, I really love some of the things you did with the gentle consonance. It added that extra flower of beauty to the flight.
Excellent poetry!

I have to agree with Panther's comment .. everything you write does have a life of its own.

It amazes me how every piece you have penned about love has it's own life yet retains all the hallmarks of your gentle soul within it's tender imagery. well done once again my dear and talented cousin.
