Best Flutters Poems

The Butterfly Flutters By

On a steamy, sun-drenched, summer Sunday,
tree leaves delightfully dancing to the tune of 
a warm, welcoming, wandering breeze blowing,
metamorphosis now complete, 
no memory of being yesterday’s creeping caterpillar,
the butterfly flutters by.

Blatantly, brazenly, boastfully,
showing off beautiful, brilliant, blue-black and brown wings,
gracefully gliding through...

Deep and deliberate
The voice of a soul
Who’s circled
At the gates
Of hell 
Come back
Loaded with
A message
To set things right

I’d recognize
His voice
Anywhere
Bluesy
Sultry
Seductive
Intoxicating
Shout out
To my very core
Call out
To my very soul

Transfixed
Quivering
I’m a captive 
Hummingbird

It’s not the words
He says
Or those he doesn’t
It’s the music 
The delivery
How it emanates
From depths...

As I stand on the shore of lake Huron in Ontario, Canada 
Marveling at all the beauty with autumn at her peek
I see what I assume a flying leaf  upon a cool breeze
Until it lands upon my hand and folds its wings
Velvet orange, striped...

Can you see those waves out there upon the water wafting
The wind clashing across the water whispers the sound of silence
With this moonlit night the stars are glowing across the water waves
Do you think perchance I may hold your hand while we stand on shore
My...

Just when the weight on my shoulders feels heaviest;
Just when my world of problems is making me cry;
Just when the crazies around me are at their craziest …
… the butterfly flutters by.

Just when I reach the end of the rope I hang onto;
Just when I...

In her cocoon she sleeps safe and warm
waiting for the day her wings are born.
Tender hearted with dreams of flying high
and for the day when everyone will notice
the pretty little butterfly that flutters by.

Strong and brave she will grace the sky
in hues of blue and...

The butterfly flutters by—
It’s the symbol of our Company.
That logo’s on my bus so high,
Where clients ride so comfortably.
That noted fluttering butterfly
Is a noble Pacific Monarch;
You can sometimes see it cruising by
The Monterey Peninsula, light or dark.
You’ll see my bus parked by fine hotels,
Classy wineries,...

The Butterfly Flutters By



Butterfly flutters by and glorious time stands still
  life springs forth and joy leaps to overfill
A beauty sent to bring heavenly and great delight
  like the glory of moon and stars on a clear night

Flashes of vibrant rainbows pass into...

her infectious smile
attracts, like moths to a flame
petite, tanned, dark locks
ones heart flutters amidst thoughts
her beauty, abounds, I'm caught

The clouds of turmoil spread on the dank sky
cast shadows congealed in the closet of life…
dark inside for it encases the moonless winter night.
I know it’d try and try till the last star fades away
to daub opaque layers of self-defeating beliefs… 
love is a volatile...

heart leaps sensing smell of love   
peace flutters sky high

Beneath the thin veil of humanity, where the heart flutters like a trapped butterfly,
Lies the stir of an ancestral cruelty, a seed deeply buried,
In the soil watered by the tears of compassion and the silent blood of struggle,
We are sculpted from the duality of nature,...
