Polka Dots

Upon a gentle summer breeze

 Its wings of polka dots I see

 I watch it flutter through the trees

 Upon a gentle summer breeze

 A butterfly flutters with ease

 It dances 'neath the sky so free

 Upon a gentle summer breeze

 Its wings of polka dots I see
 ~                                      ~

you chose a great form for polka dots, Joseph. Probably I would have done the same. I'll have to think of a completely different way to represent the polka dots if I go with triolet though!! WELL done.
