Andrea Dietrich Poet Rhyme

Butterflies

Delightsome butterflies (not those of the nervous kind)
are tickling my insides. When he's not around,
delectable daydreams flutter sweetly through my mind.
To see him gives me more anticipation 
than when I was a child waiting up for Santa!
His gaze, his kiss, his grace - poetic inspiration.

Feb. 12, 2019 for Nina Parmenter's "Capture That Emotion" Poetry Contest 
Can anyone recapture those sweet butterflies of youth?
