Audrey: The Quiet Butterfly
By: Audrey Clark
Written: September 17, 2009

Throughout it all, my heart and soul survived.

I sit along the shore observing waves
collapse in front of me. I hear a sound
that fills my soul with calmness all around.
My angels join me as I think about
the happenings within my life…events
transferring me from shyness…even for
a moment. Meetings taking place, the prose
I write for those I’ve seen and people com-
ing to experience a show with songs
whose words inspire creativeness in all
of us.

The saxophone subsides the stress and makes
me think about the weeks I went thru…All
the people that I got to meet and talk
to…all the laughter, all the thought, the fear
I had within my psyche, all the hugs
I got, the pictures, autographs…the knowledge I
obtained from my two inspirational
musicians and hopefully friends…

I think about the transformation I’ve
experienced and feel like I’m the kind,
soft, tender butterfly whose wings are filled
with color, sweetness and a tenderness
I hope has shone thru all that I have met.

This poem I wrote about my experience seeing and meeting Spencer Day.

His voice enticed me.  His words of hope

and love removed my pain like velvet rain

from up above.  Alluring smoothness he

displayed with each song adding soul to cap-

ture my heartstrings.  His words flowed down the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">wa-</st1:place></st1:State>

terfall of love into a pond of silk.

My eyes observed him as he played and sang…

Amazing talent he has.  Meeting him

was scary at first, but his kindness made

this shy one feel at ease with him.  He

will always hold a special place within

my soul for his compassion and his gift

of song.

This is a poem I wrote after seeing this bass guitarist play with Chuck Loeb on Wednesday 5/6/09 & Wednesday 5/7/09.  Enjoy
