Butterfly in a Box -(The Poem)

Wings pressed against the folds heartbeats now wild, franctic, straining, begging let me out. Sweat glistens on my painted landscape. Never again the melodic sound of ocean against rock, nor fragrance of a summer rose, never again to feel the breeze lightly touch my flesh, caressing me like a kiss. No more the gentle falling rain lulling me into a peaceful dream, nor shall I stop once more to rest at the crest of the old oak. There now only the marked silence of a soul in the trance of death; seeking the peace of it's finality. I feel it calling, the end of all there is for me. I take one last breath and close my weary wings.

Butterfly in a Box ( The Novel)

PROLOGE

I am but a small creature but this canvas I paint with speckled black dots and words emerge for you to read. Take from them small wisdoms, pass them along and learn to love before it is too late. Allow your heart to soar through this life's journey and head others mysteries. We all must take just a moment to pause and reflect, have we done all that we were sent here to do, have we spoken the words and felt the sting of all we were to have spoken and felt. I too was once like yo… Continue
