I once caught a butterfly
or perhaps
she surrendered to my net
to be adored

Rick, in your short life, you have caught many butterflies, all wanting to be adored. My guess is they never really wanted to leave but that you set them free, to see which would come back. People do change over the years, and many HAVE returned, only to find that you have both grown in different ways. Your brevity of beautiful words here, leaves much for the reader to interpret. Wow how you have matured in your writing. Now soaring, instead of limping. So happy to see that!

You got a lot out of my words
The few I have loved, were all begain in faith
and never did I know, where we would go together
Some I prayed to keep, others I let go
Each was a blessing to me
Thank you for your very carring comment

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: Adored
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ after inhaling Your words, I am nudged to mention: Sweet Emotion
Also words: Shower and Affection which came to me afterwards
Getting word: Lonely...but also phrase: You have the whole world in Your Hands
Nudged to mention: not to give up-
also ride the waves- You earned it Hearing words: Happy Birthday but getting someone near and dear- separate from that- word: Mother
Hopefully that makes sense
Powerful images You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
she surrendered to my net-
Beautiful Voice spoken~
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love~ Desire~*~

All I can say is that was an Amazing comment
Most of you words I understood and felt as well
Some I am still studing to glean the meaning
I am pleased with the weight you placed in my words

Others remaine with me

Thank you Abby
My mentor in writing used to say
each word, has to earn it`s way into a verse
He hated fluff
That is why I like these kind of contest
Thank you for saying lovely
