A Magical Madrigal

As i entered another realm
Into a land of far away dreams
Where-in lay another reality
With talking turtles, and backward flowing streams

Kingfisher dragonflies
And flying fishing cats
A turquoise turtle abandons their shell
And totters around, in an flamboyant hat

And what of me?
Where do i fit in?
I am of course a butterfly
Singing a soft Madrigal, floating in the wind

My wings are made of charcoal
A strange flourescent red
I'm kissing the lips of a beautiful moth
As we lie within our feathered bed

We both give birth to baby clouds
That drift up to the sky
As we remain upon this earthy ground
We've forgotten how to fly

The sun now shines a purple hue
And there is laughter all around
The moth, and me, again embrace
Happy at a love profound

We carry on through the portal
As our wings return to arms
And though my moth is human again
She has lost nothing of her charms

For she is now a fairy queen
As beautiful as ever, and more
I become her favourite flower
As i blossom like never before

She now wears me in her hair
And kisses me every night
As the twilight twinkles in her eyes
Under the glowing moonlit light
