Sea of Butterflies

Aloha, Ink Empress, as an island folk person representing our beautiful isles across the oceans blue, we do share our love of flowers and we have a wealth of eye-openers a few who wants them shut. I love your blossoming of words, and care less for those who say otherwise. Aloha, William

An Empress you are relaying dazzling paintings here to fourish in my heart! I thank you for this joy!

IE, the creative integration of images/ideas in this short poem makes me smile and chuckle. The idea of getting together with someone and the image of butterfly clouds creates a surreal atmosphere for the potential rendezvous-vous. Very sweet!

Are there any metaphors to describe you?? I keep getting wowed each day with your use of words and I keep wondering "how does she do it?"

Ink, congratulations on your win in my contest with this beautiful poem, Constance

Congratulations on your. I love this write. Fav for me.... Have a blessed day writing away.........................

Dear Inky. Your "...in, darkness, cerulean serenity emanates lyrical light..." is such a sweet image. Congratulations! :)

It's interesting to see you condense all the energy and mystery of your longer poems into a brief piece. It feels like it can barely contain itself. Beautiful as always.

Ah, enchanting and a hopeful tone- enjoyed reading, as always

This was so lovely to read this evening... Quite enchanting! ... May your muse not escape you for very long :)

The imagery of 'cerulean serenity emanating lyrical light' conjures a tranquil yet vibrant scene, where the beloved's silhouette becomes a source of inspiration and poetic muse. This imagery beautifully captures the interplay of darkness and light, echoing the complexities of love and longing. Overall, this poem is a poignant exploration of longing, fate, and the enduring power of love to illuminate even the darkest of nights. Through its lyrical language and evocative imagery, it invites readers to reflect on the beauty of connection and the mysteries of the heart.

I'm impressed by the choice of words/phrases, striking imagery and an appropriate use of alliteration, Empress. You provide the ideal atmosphere for the arrival of inspiration attracted by nocturnal serenity. [deserving of a fav] Regards // paul

Such a beautiful verse from you dear talented one. This is one of your shorter ones but I love it. The title is gorgeous and the verse that follows is divinely captivating. You have a magician’s touch when conjuring up imagery! I love, ‘ silvery silence’ ‘ and the last line especially. Profound. Gorgeous - just gorgeous as you are! I’m intrigued by your water room. I visualise being there too and listening to the waves dancing. Loved it. Big hugs to inspirational you xx :):)

Dearest Empress,Your poem literally stirring echoes of longing and serenity. Like the daisy moon in a sea of butterfly clouds, One can feel the pull of mellifluous memories and the yearning to reach the star where our fate resides. In the silvery silence of darkness, We can find peace, envisioning your scintillating silhouette lingering as our poetic muse. I love how your words evoke a sense of timeless connection and inspire me to embrace the lyrical light within. A Fav! Blessings my friend, Daniel

Lovely verse, Empress. I like the ideal of a sea of butterflies as one's muse. Intriguing and unique. A FAV for my list. I sent light that you may see your path more clearly and smiles to lighten your day. Your poet friend in Texas, Bill

wow, I love when you are this succinct while also being super descriptive. A fave!

- A lovely poem... filled with lyrical light, Ink :) - hugs

I enjoyed this poem. It has a joyful flutter of wings in its flow.

This is lovely, I enjoyed the read

Wonderfully reminiscing in poetic bliss, my friend. A charming poem in your usual artistic vocabulary. --while this heart longs to reach the star with our fate engraved. Perhaps, in silvery silence---Dream BIG!

This is truly lyrical, with metaphoric lines and alliteration, you produced a grand mellifluous melody. Romance is in the air as springtime is on now. Wonderful.

"I’ll find you tonight, for in, darkness, cerulean serenity emanates lyrical light" it sounds so hopeful, Empress. Romantic through a sea of butterflies. Beautifully done!

Love the alliteration. "In a sea of butterfly clouds." Sometimes when I picture myself with these metaphor, it's a crazy sight and I'm always happy to sink in them. Great write dear Inky.

I hope you do find that muse tonight. Nothing like having a night visitor called the muse that gives us a good poem to pen. Thanks for stopping by. We had a nice Easter Sunday and I hope you did as well. Sara K

Moon, stars, and recollections evoke feelings of longing and yearning, Dear Ink. As a daisy moon encircled by butterfly clouds, yearning to rediscover a love lost in the celestial expanse. If you want to show how you feel, you use flowery, romantic words. Such lovely and evocative words as "melifluous," "cerulean serenity," and "scintillating silhouette" make one want to go on a romantic getaway. Words like "waltzing waves" and "poetic muse" that rhyme give the poetry a melodic character.
