I love butterflies.. :) 

THE BUTTERFLY AND ME Venus butterflies tiptoe upon roses rise playful in pirouette, they tango with the singing voice of a clarinet... Wouldn't this view capture your eyes? Swarm of honey fragrance fans my cheeks and so my hair, I turn around and see a butterfly so flair. I run, run run to chase such butterfly with care but pity, I missed so I just stand and stare... Kissing now, the curves and swells of the hibiscus is a butterfly that dance in ballet hush, tickling the petals, oh! they bend and blush-- won't these two wonders make a sublime meniscus? Tomorrow morning, Do gaze at a butterfly say hello or wave a hi colorful they are but they only live for awhile Blessed, we are given years to live by but as colorful as how butterfly paints the sky Do we also brush the whole world with a rainbow smile? _____________________________________________________________ © O.E.

This poem is delightful Olive. I love the way you've colored them with such aplomb. Love the way you write :) I love butterflies, the erratic way they fly makes me smile. They are wonderful to write about, and I have done so, even writing Dark Poetry about them, James :) xx :)

Hi Olive, You have great language skills. This is stunning in its simplicity. I imagine this piece in a free verse form also. I think you could make it a masterpiece. Great job. Keep up the good work. I rated it a 7. Earl
