Butterfly Wings

Aching arms reaching
to crystal skies of blue.
Wishing he was cradling
the soft skin that is you.

Yearning lips speaking
of loves many treasures.
Weeping vesper seeking
to release her pleasures.

Music plays melodic strings
from fairies harp she sings,
rising from mushroom rings, 
fluttering of butterfly wings.

Catching dreams breaking
apart in wayward seclusion.
Drifting heartache beating
awakens inward intrusion.

Touching eyes reveling
sensual feel of innocence.
Kissing lovers moaning
into nights golden essence.      .

Music plays melodic strings
from fairies harp she sings,
rising from mushroom rings, 
fluttering of butterfly wings.

Walking ghosts finding
teardrops flowing undertow.
Swirling desire escaping
breath of the goddess glow.

Crying gasps fulfilling
a need of gifted royalty.
Heaving sighs are enticing 
spirits visions of reality.

Music plays melodic strings
from fairies harp she sings,
rising from mushroom rings, 
fluttering of butterfly wings.

      Hi Tasha, thanks for reading and commenting on this write, sorry I haven't gotten back to you right away. I was on vacation in Michigan the last 8 days. I especially loved Macikinac Island what a beautiful place that is. They have a butterfly conservatory there and WoW, I had never seen so many wonderful butterflies of such beautiful colors. Anyway thanks for the read.

    Beautiful write, Charley. I like what you did with the rhyme. I think it's cool when people experiment with different kinds of rhyming. Also, liked the concept of butterfly wings. Seemed metaphorical in a way, like the beating that can be felt in people's hearts when their loved one is near. Thanks for sharing and keep that pen flowing.

      Thanks Haley for reading and commenting, and for catching the metaphorical phrases within the write, as they were meant to be so. *smile* Also thanks for being a loyal reader and commenter which is much more then I can say for many people on this site. In a couple of days I will be gone for a week, so if I don't catch one of your writes while I'm gone, I will when I return.
      Lots of love, be good!!!!
      Charley

        You're welcome, Charley. Yeah, I tend to be a loyal commenter. You should see how I am on youtube. I tend to comment a lot there, too. On some channels that have like thousands of subscribers and a couple hundred videos, somehow my comments show up the most on some channels. Sometimes I feel like I talk too much.

        Hope you have a good week while you're gone. I can't promise any new writes will be up when you get back, but I never know if I will find inspiration.

        Take care.

        Haley Mary
