Where Botterflies Go

where butterflies go
when summer is no more
spider webs when the clouds roll out
and the rain begins to pour
highway lights where tears dry
pavement holds the heat
sidewalk beside graffiti walls
echos from the street

Kris...correct the title Where Butterflies Go...you know...when I saw it I read bottleflies..which to me go around the garbage and the dead...not at all what you were going for in this THOUGHT provoking verse. Also, grouped by 4 lines you have a nice quatrain with 2nd and 4th line rhyme and 6th and 8th. Light & Love
