Wings Of Spring (poem)

Wings In Spring

I thought I could

child’s tales imagined

me

believe

a sprite beyond just that

field’s last

next

flower

lazing petal’s slumber shade with winking wry smile

waking

they would wary

me

just a fragile touch of wing shared proof

with butterflies

in my hand

Today, I’d like you to tangle with the word touch”
