A Wide-Eyed Child

a wide-eyed child
leaps into a woman’s arms –
a butterfly lands

Maybe that's it. PLUS...I added the word lands after the contest. That could be why I didn't place. I thought of it in the middle of the night, too....and didn't get up to correct it in time. LOL Thanks for letting me know, though, that you like it. That means a lot! Big Smiles, Dane Ann
