very interesting second line. Makes me think there is something else involved other than butterflies. I really like this.

It's an authentic haiku. Go on this way. Can I post it on my poetry blog fryktorein.blogspot.gr?

Likened to a rose garden concert!! I give this a standing ovation for its imagery! If u could only have a picture to accompany this power-packed scene! (I know I know...I am a sucker for a great butterfly photo!!!) It also has a spirit filled title!! gwendolen
