Daft - Summer Chat

A butterfly, one summer day
 Spoke to me as he fluttered my way
 He asked me where the flowers were
 And told me which he did prefer

 I pointed where the Zinnias grew
 He thanked me, and off he flew!
 As I continued on my walk
 I wondered, who taught him to talk!

Hi Joseph, I really enjoyed your well written piece. Nice flow with good rhymes. The imagery is good as well. Wouldn't that be something if a butterfly could talk? I love butterflies. I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis
