Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

BUTTERFLY

Author:	Dale Root

Poem:	BUTTERFLY

	BUTTERFLY Butterflies are very beautiful and fragile They come in all different shapes and sizes and colors I used to collect all kinds of butterflies Black, white,red and all different colors Each time I caught one I would see another that i thought was even more beautiful Than the one I already had I really thought I had a lot of fun chasing the butterflies and catching them I just did not know how to keep them Sometimes I would have many at one time And not know what to do with them Well what I mean is I would either hurt them or damage them See butterflies are vary fragile And Need to be treated with respect Never new that You know if you touch a butterflies wings it can not fly I use to want to just touch the butterflies wings because they were so beautiful I did not think or care how that butterfly would feel or what effect I would have on its life Or if it would ever be able to fly again I met someone who gave me what I was really looking for See I thought if I could have a lot of butterflies I would feel good about my self INSIDE Never happened See I was missing a part of me, that only God could give Now I have learned this some time ago when I really met Jesus Way back when He was telling me about butterflies But I did not understand till something happen You see for me the butterflies were the girls I use to chase Catch and release Not knowing the damage I was doing to them by touching there wings Some would die from their wounds and some would never fly again God took my net away But now I know what the butterfly was about that He showed me The butterfly I saw was the most beautiful, I had ever seen And The one I will never forget, it will be in my heart forever as a reminder God is good He showed me that a butterfly is a beautiful thing That changes all the time They can be a black one, red,white, and many more different colors and shapes and sizes, no two are the same You see I have been caught in the butterfly catchers net before also, and got my wings damaged too So I know that also. I just could not see what I was doing wrong till I did not do it any more Now I can see just how damaging we all are. So now I just watch the butterflies and do not try to catch one or touch one I will wait for the butterfly to touch me Then I will be very careful and fragile with it And be sure not to harm it, and if it wants to fly away, I do not want it I will not touch its wings, so it can not fly, that has to be the butterflies choice I respect the butterfly THE BUTTERFLY CATCHER THAT USE TO BE

I DIDNT KNOW I WAS BROKEN

Author:	Dale Root

Poem:	I DIDNT KNOW I WAS BROKEN

	I did not know I was Broken I do not cry though it rains inside The Hurt I Hurt, you Hurt, The way I feel you feel When does it pass, I ask The pain When will it pass, I ask Why does it feel like it does, this hurt I feel But is it real What I feel I do not like this hurt I feel, but long for Love That, I want to feel What is Love? THIS I can not feel Is it what I see but not real? But can not have, or have and do not feel LOVE Is it just a word? I feel what I do not want, but receive HATE SORROW PAIN I never see them coming but I know them by name Pain is pressure on my soul Sorrow will never let me go Hate is what I know Love is what I long for Love is good, this I hear Love is where? I hope it is near Love I am told it is good, but the ones that tell me so, do not do like they should Love , that they have, I do not want, For what it feels like is Pain Hate and Sorrow Do I not know LOVE, or do they not know? I know pain hate and sorrow, I have felt them today and probably tomorrow LOVE The one I have always longed for I now know this Love I always wanted It was with me always Love that word I always knew it is in me and it is in you LOVE was what got me through, my hate pain and sorrow Love always got me to tomorrow Love helped me when no one else would Love made me do what I never could Love was there when I was in Hate, Love was what got me through the gate This Love I never knew is in me and it is in you Love of this kind is not hard to find, this love is in you Just ready to unwind.
