Notes About The Poem

Butterfly

Begun as a small worm
Before a silk cocoon
Becomes more colorful
Beating its wings to spring
By and between sucks its
Blossoms to Bellflower
Blackberry, Bluebonnet…

Wonderful, Eve. Your Pleiades is a history of a birth of a butterfly, so necessary for human life. Hugs.
