Butterfly Glasses (2023 Poem Seven)

Butterfly Glasses

All that might be
Hearing winds swaying leaves
With care, I emerge
Full of wonder

Feeling warm golden sun
All that might be
Full of hope
Expanding outward, I stretch

Fragile wings slowly unfurl
Full of joy
All that might be
Inhaling peat scented earth

Full of love
Tasting sweet rain drops
Patiently waiting for flight
All that might be

(Prompt:  The viator is a poetic form invented by Robin Skelton. The first line is used again as refrain in the second line of the second stanza, and the third line of the third stanza, and so on and so forth depending on how many stanzas you include. The last line of the final stanza must be the refrain, so you start and end on it.)
