Notes About The Poem

* first two stanzas belong to Mystic Rose Rose

The Butterfly

As she drinks nectar from a flower, sweetness from heaven falls like dew  
anointed with a gentle rain amidst sun showers she appears as if on cue
 
Lifting her wings she lands on a Zinnia beneath a tinted sky of April blue 
flight of fancy fanning fast, fabulous marvel, she is beauty true on true 

The bees join her dance of life and celebrate 
for nature is filled with love and absent of hate

She then soars to the clouds as the rainbow mirrors her beauty
as leaving us with smiles is her sworn duty

What a sweet lovely collaboration this was. I came here to also say thanks for my win with Dora Mar. I learned a lot studying that painting's history.
