Save A Place For Me

I promenade across firefly bridge,
absentmindedly missing the obvious mention of my name
set off in tiny firework explosions.

River spirits drift humbly by
and I let them pass without a first impression
possible ignoring important counsel.

I so easily get tangled up in
forest-lit dreams of a perfect happy universe
yet how can I stop this ignorance?

Unfading stars trace my path
like miracles that have blossomed out of the sky
if only I would pay them mind.

When finally I can go no further
demolished roads showing clearly a dead end
I turn back around and learn.

I have another chance today
to acknowledge each faith-flying butterfly
and sing them into tomorrow.

Forget not sunflower's smile
before she retreats back home sweet home
let her know she is loved.
