A Place Called Wonder Wall

My name is Betty the Butterfly, from a place called Wonder Wall From deep in the forest I was born, beside a beautiful waterfall This place you have heard of before, it's known as the land of the small Where everything is micro, where the tallest is not even tall Azures to translucent fall in the most wonderful of cascades Where sprays of natures champagne, delight in organic mist display Lush greens abound all around, whilst colours so radiate Toadstools, grasses and trees in the most awesome of create I Betty the Butterfly have the wings to see this at source Gliding over the spectrum of rainbows, pollination is my course Just as all the others like me, in proboscis search we furrow We like watching the furries below us, in tunnel visioned burrow We live in a carnival of colours, so different from anywhere else To be ourselves we have to be, and protect our different self's

James dear poet...I am smiling now, thinking of Noah, how he would love this write ! I wonder if you might have a little soul as Noah, he is 7. This sounds like a great lil' fairy tale sir, one I've never heard, yet one I'd like to share with my lil' guy. Noah is a lil' deep soul who relates to many writes on the Soup. TY for such a creative poem sir ! Have a great night James...much love, james
