Best Fantasybutterfly Poems
I dreamt, I was a butterfly or was I, a butterfly dreaming
My wingspan was wider than all the other butterflies
Delighted I soared higher and faster
Swooping in and out of lush trees and white fences;
Until,
I found the perfect enchanted waterfall
It fell at least sixteen feet splashing on the satiny rocks below—
I sat fascinated
Balanced on the petals of a fragrant, purple Lilac
the cool mist sprayed my brilliant pink and yellow wings;
This was such an enraptured place
it reminded me of my far away Wales,
I was totally enthralled as I surveyed my surroundings
Pink and red roses; blue wisteria; white gardenias and jasmines
The aroma nearly overwhelmed me, deliciously intoxicating;
Why, I was so entranced that I nearly fell off the little blossom
That’s when I saw green frog sitting on one of the cool rocks by the stream
His eyes were closed but he was smiling with an occasional croak.
He was captivating to watch;
Perhaps, he was dreaming he was becoming a Prince
Could be as I recall dreaming I was a butterfly—
Oh! The wonder of it all!

DREAMING
"I dreamt, I was a butterfly or was I, a butterfly dreaming . . ."
Crossing over into an enchanting land of dreams.
Where I met a delightful little girl named Jean.
As fascinating as she was I couldn't see her face.
Entranced by her butterfly wings she flew away without a trace.
The pool of water where she sat was from her falling tears.
Enraptured in thought of just being here.
When I awoke from this captivating dream.
Thing were different now then they seemed.

i dreamt, i was a butterfly or was i, a butterfly dreaming
i was flying through a place without sound
no happiness
no love
then i was enraptured away
to a place of magical feeling
and dreams come true
i was delightful to see
a place with no evil at all
the people where captivating
always smiling
saying "hello"
i was taken to see the queen
who shimmered like snow
her palace was fascinating
the garden, enchanting
i never wanted to leave this entrancing dream
but i woke up
