Don’t flutter by pretty butterfly just alight on a flower and rest when day is done, take in the sun your jewelled beauty’s simply the best Then spread your wings and fly so high like a stained glass window in the sky 3/8/19

Hi sweet Jan, I also wrote one about a butterfly. Stainglass window is a fantastic analogy. Thanks for stopping by mine and your care. Yes things are pretty grim politically here , conversely Im doing just great though. Theres going to be a helluva lot of catching up to do. Love J

Hi Jan, You created such a lovely and uplifting piece. Sometimes I wish I could fly like that butterfly. Fly above the madness and hate of this cruel world. Good job:-) Alexis

Thanks Anna, we were at a friends house on Monday and she had a butterfly in the house and carefully removed it onto her flowerbed. Hope it survived as the weather is so inclement at the moment:-( hugs Jan xx
