Butterflies in my hair










I'm tired of



of rain and grey mists.



I want fists full of flowers



and red gingham checked cloths



in fields full of endless secrets.



To dream of glittering rivers that go



on endless journeys.



I'll lie on my back in soft green grass



looking up at pink balloons



drifting off



into a pale blue sky



all the while dreaming of you



the places we have been



and wondering if the longing in my heart



to see them all again



will ever stop.



These  dreams,



these  butterflies



in my hair

  1. I'm so glad you are on the mend :) thats always good to hear.
    Its been nothing but wet and windy here too :( the sun has kissed my skin only a few days so far this year and I'm longing for some sunny days. I can't believe we are only days away from the longest day, and then once again slowly the nights starts to draw in, this cannot be allowed, I havent enjoyed one evening yet in the garden!
    Take care my lovely and as always its such a joy to read your words x x x H

Pretty misty stars

A sound of birds singing

 It's early.  And almost a year since I was here. I hear a sound of birds singing  outside my window and a dog barking down the street. ...
