Butterfly

Ah, to be a butterfly

To soar through the summer sky

As if there is not a worry

In all the world

As if summer will last forever

And the trees no longer change

To move with grace and beauty

And never worry about tomorrow

If only we all could live like this

And coast through life

With the wind under our wings

This was a really lovely write! I loved the imagery in this piece, and the ethereal, almost dream like atmosphere that you created. The message underlying your poem really made me think, and I kind of found myself agreeing and being able to relate to what you were trying to say. I liked this a lot. :)

Very beautiful with a sense of longing, it seems it would be a nice existence, with no worries and no cares.

I find myself thinking the same thing all the time... So I try my best to do just that, to live like a butterfly. A well-written poem, I've really come to like your style after reading a few of your poems. The bit about summer lasting forever really touched me, I've had quite a few good memories from summer, as I'm sure we all have at some point.. Rambling aside, solid idea, great imagery, love the style.
