Melinda Butterfield Poems

Sometimes I worry there's nothing to say
Yet I feel that I could talk in a subtle way
Oh, but most times so it seems,
yes that most times something
...

Life well as you know is your passion
and time is too short.
Love is a question:
Will it last or will it fade away?
...

Hey Friend,
I thought I heard you cry my name in the wind.
Yes I was sure and I could feel your fright.
But don't you know? Can't you see? Time will show.
...

Clear streams, moon beams, these are the good things
we dream about when we're asleep. Soft rain in your eyes
please baby don't cry. This is your lullaby.
...

Well, we all went to school
to get some learnin' done.
And we had our share
engagin' in the fun.
...

Who are you my Lord?
Are you quiet and golden like a sunrise?
Are you calm and gentle as a soft breeze?
Well, sometimes I can hear you whispering
...

In the time it takes for love to grow
I have found that my heart dwells in your soul
And I'm longing to give to you
Just to you
...

When I've traveled on my own
I feel I've lost the love you've shown
and I long to turn to you to guide me back
to a place where I have grown
...

When Cujo ran away last night, the weather was a mess.
For it was New Year's Eve, and it was cold and dark at best.

I walked around the neighborhood, flashlight in hand to see
...

I traveled to a place unknown to me.
Laughter seemed to fill the air.
And in this land I found a heart of gold.
In someone who really cared.
...

The Best Poem Of Melinda Butterfield

Nothing To Say

Sometimes I worry there's nothing to say
Yet I feel that I could talk in a subtle way
Oh, but most times so it seems,
yes that most times something
always gets in the way,
and there's nothing to say.

Somehow I feel that we've sung and we've heard
All of the music and all of the words
about the past in our lives
and about the cast in this play,
Is there nothing to say?

Oh but most times so it seems
yes that most times my dreams
always get in the way
and there's nothing to say.
