Tea and Oranges (She Feeds Me)

  

I just thought I’d mention

that I spent

most of yesterday evening

kissing a butterfly

I didn’t realise it would be

as cool as it was

in fact I was pleasantly surprised

to see one at all

overwhelmed

would be nearer to the truth

 

it wasn’t cold in any way

no far from it…

very satisfying to say the least

in fact I cannot recall a time

I have felt a warm glow such

as the one that this gave me

 

strange…

perhaps not…

well no not at all...

just one that I could not have foreseen

 

It isn’t the right starting point

to initiate a conversation, I know but

It’s just that I needed to reveal and

this was the closest thought to

my lips at the time… that’s all

so I do hope you don’t mind…

we can always go back

to the beginning if you wish

at some later point

if only to recall...

well I don’t know...

if only to recall I suppose

but I am not so sure that

every thing in life should start there

at the beginning that is

what do you think?

 

Oh and yes

did I say that there was a scent

so beautiful in odour

that I breathed it into my lungs

with the deepest of inhalation and

at every available opportunity...

I might add leaving the perfume to linger

as I slipped into my dream.
