I read about butterflies all the time, the subject of many poems.
Now I have read one that has done poetic justice to this marvel .
Not to put down others, just think warming wings in morning sun
made all the difference. Gold dust is too, magic,
Sending children into flight is always in mind- love your work,

Such a wonderful message in this delightful little poem... when ever we take a chance how can you not wonder how others will react or effect them.

This poem reads like a morning hour launch pad-- leaving the flight or the day up to the reader to create. Incredible impact!

I remember this image. Poppy always had some that made you think.
I love your thoughts on this image.
You make the butterfly sound beautiful ( which it is)
and ready to take on the world.
I would love to witness the first flight of a butterfly.
Beautiful thoughts.

Simply pretty. The words alone form an image and the photo just adds to the beautiful words. Very pretty.

looks like a tortoise shell butterfly, do you get the swallowtails in your area ?
