As fragile as a butterfly wing
as swiftly blown away
my memories take flight at times,
sail to some distant bay

Brenda Firth Biography

Brought up in a home where Elves dwelt in the light bulbs and Fairies hid in the garden, I loved my childhood, was blessed with a great family (even if I include my 10 children) and now live an adventurous life of learning, teaching and travel, with my husband Doug. I love the written and spoken word and will likely keep writing poetry until I can no longer lift my pen...or punch the keys of the computer.)

Butterfly Thoughts

As fragile as a butterfly wing
as swiftly blown away
my memories take flight at times,
sail to some distant bay

Yet, now and then they gently light
within my wooly head
and with a powdered fluttering
they bring me peace, instead

Sweet memories bring only joy
Sad one bring only pain
My butterfly thoughts
don't tie me in knots,
they're here..then they're gone again.

So if my mind seems far away,
while yours is focused on me
don't make it a moment that spoils your whole day
let go..set your butterflies free

For I remember Love
and it may feed and fuel my soul.
I feel it in a smiling face,
a caring word, a warm embrace;
a hand in mine, showing me the way,
these are the memories of each new day.

And even if that memory
should simply flutter by..
I'll catch it..maybe..later,
when it comes by Butterfly.

Love has many faces
Love is many things
It may flutter by...on a Butterfly
or come on Fairy wings

(July,2007)
