A Soft Breeze Poem by Laurie hill

A Soft Breeze

Rating: 4.6


My life,
is but the flutter of a butterflys wings,
capturing the sun for an instant,
My breath is cast,
a soft breeze, in this storm of life,
My shadow owns no earth,
nor leaves no mark,
My time is no man's,
not even mine to count,
Nor yours, my love....

You have captured your butterfly in the transient breeze so well. This poem is as gentle as the flutter and I can feel a silence in the air as I try to hear a sound. Beautiful Laurie. love Karin
