When I am gone,
I want to dwell in your dreams
like a fluttering butterfly
on your skin.
on your skin.
Kiss your eyelids as you sleep
and embrace you with my wings.
when I am gone I will dance with you
and embrace you with my wings.
when I am gone I will dance with you
through all the continents,
we will
hopscotch through the stars
as we climb into
as we climb into
each others arms.
When I am gone
I'll leave my scent on your pillow
When I am gone
I'll leave my scent on your pillow
while the violins play
and you drink poems for breakfast
in a tall cup
knowing you were loved.
I like idea of dancing with the loved one through all the continents ~

Thank you, Hank.
DeleteI love the dancing but most of all drinking poems for breakfast
ReplyDeleteI have to say.... that I love it too :)
Deletebeautiful soft words. touching every aspect of your loved ones life is a magnificent plan! In every moment of their breathing life I would do just that. I believe they would know it was you Ayala! I have experienced a few times during meditation in a room that was still and void of draft, the soft cool brush of what felt like butterfly wings on my arm. Very gentle and soft like your words you've expressed in this touching poem. Love it! Off to have my cup of poetry now! thank you! take care!
ReplyDeleteThank you dearest Hope. I have felt things that were unexplained as well. I appreciate all your kindness always. Xox
DeleteEnjoy your cup of poetry. :)
I love this:
ReplyDelete"we will
hopscotch through the stars"
And the last six lines.
This makes my heart feel light. Lovingly sweet writing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. And that statue is one of my favorites. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely. I love the image of drinking poetry for breakfast. So visceral.
