BUTTERFLIES THAT FLUTTER BY

"A good friend is like a four-leaf clover; hard to find and lucky to have."

STAY WITH MY HEART – SOPHIE ZELMANI

 

While away the hours

watch the pretty flowers

blossom; overhanging bowers

dreaming; sweetness that is you

 

Honeyed thoughts that make me warm

bring me peace; calm down all storms

love of you in all it's forms

makes my heart complete

 

Butterflies that flutter by

skip a heartbeat; make me sigh

mine is not to reason why

I love you like I do

 

Pinch myself to stay awake

wondering when the day will break

longing for you; exquisite ache

see you in my dreams

 

Heard our song; it played today

on the radio; seemed far away

how I wish that you had stayed

by my side always

 

Looking now up to the sky

I am still and wondering why

why do people often lie

to make themselves feel better

 

It doesn't help to hear a lie

I would rather know and cry

so I can heal; so I can fly

free to live and love again.

Some of you will already be aware that my friend of 18 years last Thursday suffered a major heart attack. He is not old, not overweight and was the fittest man I have ever known prior to this. He was out enjoying doing what he loves best, taking photos of his beloved wildlife when he collapsed suddenly. He is still in hospital following a medical procedure. If I can say just one thing it is to not take for granted those who you are closest to because you just never know … I dedicate this picture to him and to the two people who so loved this tree when they saw it in my last video. I will not be here as much as I have been for awhile because I will be caring for him during his recovery. This will be no easy task to get him to do nothing!!! He is more stubborn than me … if that's at all possible!! ; 0) Annoyingly he can't be tagged into this photo ... ; 0))

 

Quick update : I am happy to say my friend has been released from the hospital. Now he can begin to recover. Thanks to all my friends and his for all your good wishes xx
