Sheri Green

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
...

Sleep, little angel, lost in twilight's sigh
Quietly dream of wavering, tranquil skies
And I will sing, sing to you my lullaby
...

I am but a musard in this cosmic scheme
With lambent eyes that cannot see
I gaze across the expanse of this universe
...

The littlest angel
From the Heaven's above
Came down to the earth
To find a thing called love
...

I was so tired and emotionally drained
Expecting defeat before the day had begun
I would try to break free of all the pain
I felt alone, like I was the only one
...

My Death walks ever beside me
the counter to my life's frame

A most steadfast and constant companion
...

I am a princess locked in an ivory tower
Dismissed from the memories of man
Lingering in these most idle hours
Until a prince comes round again
...

The day had closed upon my heart
And the darkness had slowly settled in
Casting shadows across love's fallow fire
...

I was once scattered to the errant winds
But you gathered my selves and did mend
Them into a heart once whole again
...

Many are the sweet things
My new love gives to me
Daffodils and promise rings
Bestowed so generously
...

You have painted me
A shade of pale
As I wander beyond
The banded veil
...
