This pair of angel wings in Rockport, MA survived the rocky entrance to a small, peaceful wharf in the heart of Bearskin Neck, where I was searching for sea glass. Delicate as they were, they made it to the shore intact. I knew at once how they got there! I packaged these fragile wings carefully in my suitcase and brought them all the way home with me, where they now rest in the east-facing windowsill of my reading room here on the Johnson Funny Farm in rural Georgia. I used a Pantoum verse form today to revisit my original post from October 16, 2021.
Butterfly Flutters
my mother appeared, unexpected
on White Wharf’s peaceful shore
from Heaven, on delicate angel wings ~
a glimmering butterfly kiss
on White Wharf’s peaceful shore
shimmering miracle, hug unfurled –
a glimmering butterfly kiss
celestial seraph’s feathery wisps
shimmering miracle, hug unfurled –
eyelash-flutter cheekbone brusher
celestial seraph’s feathery wisps
tender moment, tickling breeze
eyelash-flutter cheekbone brusher
from Heaven, on delicate angel wings ~
tender moment, tickling breeze
my mother appeared, unexpected
