Best Fluttering Poems

           they kissed a purple cornflower growing.

They stopped...

There’s a fluttering in my attic;
something’s alive up there.
The cat is getting frantic
and I dread going up the stairs.

I hope that it’s a bird,
rather than a bat;
unless I have misheard,
oh, I’d better get a hat.

I recall my sister’s hair,

She seemed restless
Their gilded cage of love
That she had begged him
To imprison her in
With the bars of his passion
Seemed to be confining now

She never said anything

And his heart bled

Spring
 invites
 butterflies
 to sup nectar
 from fragrant flowers

Their fluttering starts in moonlight
When Luna reaches zenith height
She croons as butterflies take flight
Magical night         Magical night

a magical wind dancer
flowing so softly
beautifully follows wind’s lead
fluidly without fail...

decorate the neighborhood park today
mingled with the yellow, red, gold
leaves like stained glass fluttering in decay

tickling the canopy just for a lark;
laughter, applauding every playful breeze.

Lyrical notes that instinctively please;
as patches of light play tag with the dark,
listen to the wind fluttering the leaves.

Sunbeams flicker through the branches of trees
alighting briefly upon gilded bark;
laughter,...

Upon a sheer and jagged cliff an Appaloosa horse of many colors stands majestic
under the blazing azure sky.  An Ojibwa girl, proud, looks at the beautiful land of
Canada as the mighty wind roars.  A feather in her raven long hair quietly moves.
Below the...

See


…a monarch butterfly’s 
silently
fast fluttering wings
flickering shadows 
 breaking 
       sunbeams…
