Riding On The Wings Of A Butterfly Poem by RIC BASTASA

i walk the dream
where the street
breathes in the shadow
of moon-light,
the lovers night.

oh, sweet love
long time coming
longer time whispering
us free.

i sing your eyes
as willows
stretching into
the ever passing winds

i speak the words of my heart
i sing the songs of my dreams
i see in the water
your image
and it’s true...

as i ride on the wings of the butterfly,
i offer you a rose, if given the chance.
