Notes About The Poem

Beautiful Butterfly

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

Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 3/8/2019 9:24:00 AM 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
