Catch and release
The butterfly’s soul
A beautiful moment in time
Given to us to adore
A gift from God
To cherish and explore
Catch and release
A blessed event
Enjoyment of life
Beloved sacrament
Should be welcomed
Something to uphold
Always ends
Story left untold
Another heart broken
Another soul taken
Catch and release
To catch is divine
Having you to hold
To love, to share
But to release
Always painful
Always too soon
Always sorrow
And deep despair
The butterfly’s moment in time
So brief
A turn of a page
Blink of an eye
As is life
Our place in time
Our curve in the circle
Our page in the book
Comes and goes
Catch and release
Gone!
Another soul
Nature took

Thank, and you gave me a beautiful response. Thank you for that too.
Lovely..
And yet another appears on the horizon,
as the first has gone to its peace.
Another to stuggle against the wind,
another to catch and release..
Beautiful poem once again Renee.
