Notes About The Poem

Butterfly Kingdom

down in the meadow
flowers bloom in all colors
and butterflies reign

sunshine monarch bliss
in emerald blooming grass
lovely moon tonight

prismatic hued flight
days of golden rhapsody
in changeless summer

I have butterflies as ornaments in the garden, magnets on my fridge and butterflies stuck on our slide in doors so we don't walk through the glass, in short, I'm butterfly crazy so loved your poem. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.

Your vivid artistry brings me there, Evelyn. This rendition of Summertime by Nina Simone is hauntingly beautiful. Her voice floats above and touches notes like a butterfly dancing midst flowers. Your imagery captures lilting lightness with delicacy and grace. A wonderful poetic presentation. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan
