Notes About The Poem

Image result for photo of copper colored butterfly

This Clear Day

I walk through the wind and sun on this clear day
Thoughts slide from my mind and easily slip away
A copper colored butterfly, flies by, swooping, dipping
It makes me feel joy inside, like I could carry on skipping
The acorns have fallen onto the pavement of the street
I am careful not to slip on them too, rolling under my feet
     --- Days like these are so special to have fun ---
        --- In all the beauty that nature has spun ---
