Notes About The Poem

17th Oct 2023 (For Joseph May's contest)

Butterfly Affair

Butterflies on our lemon tree, 
Flirting with its leaves, flitting free, 
Brushing it here, kissing it there, 
What a cute romantic affair! 
A "kaleidoscope" I foresee! 


{A group of butterflies is also known as a "kaleidoscope"}
