Notes About The Poem

Valentine Butterflies

Listen to poem:
Valentine butterflies, they are unlike any other butterfly you ever did see.  
Assembled in your soul, they only come out to play when you fall in  
Love.   They flutter free of their own accord.  Red velour wings as large as 
Elephant ears.  They are soft to the touch and they tickle gently  for they are   
Naturally inclined to be mellow to sweeten your disposition.  They say 
That love is a promise best kept forever but these butterflies truly have no  
Idea, how long they will coexhist in your bosom.  
Never take them for granted for they are volatile and will cease to exist if  
Enbezzeled with indifference.  

Butterflies in your stomach means love in your eyes 
Undiluted adoration leads to existential inspiration   
Trust love and it will take you down the rose petal path   
Trust love and it will lead you home to familiar ground   
Every heart deserves affection, maybe this year its you !
Receive them with grace and share in their affection. Let them feel   
Free to roam inside you.  These butterflies are happy wingsies.
Love, it flutters free of its own accord.  So be sure to     
Invite it in, along with those sweet  little floating beauties.  Somehow   
Each year they migrate to Cupid's chamber, where they are arrowed into    
Souls that turn to Lovers. Well done Cupid, well done butterflies.

"Receive them with grace and share in their affection. Let them feel Free to roam inside you. These butterflies are happy wingsies." -- lovely expression. Love means never having to say sorry...never having to say anything -- love, needing no affirmation but its presence.

I agree love is supposed to be the all and it does not deserve anything that needs an I'm sorry but we are human, so I'm glad they invented the word lol

This makes me think of an old Dolly Parton song, 'Love is Like a Butterfly' - this is a well done acrostic, and you describe the delicate beauty of both the butterflies and falling in love so artistically! Very sweet and romantic~
