A Quickie

Beneath every breath a flower lingers
Their sweet scent caught by vibrations
from the fragile wings of butterflies
As they float above the green meadow,
in colored disguise, for all to see

this is really nice with pretty imagery. I am seeing some of these quickie poems with bubble theme and some without. I think I am confused but I am going to go to that contest page and read it again. I think I am not going to get a poem finished in time before it fills up.

thanks so much for that sweet comment on my poem today. I do not really do that much for other people, just lots of poetry comments, it seems like. But I truly feel for the downtrodden. Let me see this poem of yours now.
