Sheri Green Poems

Butterfly, oh butterfly, why do you hide in the shadows?
Spread wide your wings, let your heart sing
And come dance with me in the meadow
...

So many have come to dwell behind a panarchy mask
Lost between the delusive dimensions of identity
Unable to perceive that which is deemed real
...

There shall come Spring rains
When all seems lost to the cold decay
And Winter shall release its icy reign
...

The colored array whispers
Across the sky
Arching streams of light
That dazzle the eye
...

A long time ago, in a far away land
There was once a maiden most fair
And a King took this maiden by the hand
Giving her a wedded crown to wear
...

I am a little cottontail
With ears so very long
To help me hear the sounds
Of the beautiful birdies song
...

Forbidden to wed a mortal wife
Lleu implored the mages old
To imbibe flowers with a semblance of life
And create a woman he could hold
...

I know not where the Fates may lead me
as I call upon the sisterly guides
I fear that they may yet deceive me
as they answer my desolate cries
...

Awake, Alive
Existing, Breathing, Growing
Forever, Eternal, Boundless, Constant
Fading, Slipping, Grasping
...

Will you walk with me in the garden
Amongst the Spring's first bloom
We shall tarry there, my darlin'
Amidst the lilies sweet perfume
...
