Butterfly Sky

 

 

 

Closing wings of blue
morpho,
coloured skies tinged angel white,
flap, briefly, at end  of day
before
dark clouds conceal you.

Perhaps we should all start thinking of making a Chofu anthology and if we do what you've done here and in the previous poem, must certainly be highlighted as some of the best.

Another gorgeous chofu. I'm almost speechless. siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh

Notice I said, "almost."

take care :)

Beautiful images here Vanessa.
I often think of our time as humans on earth similar to the butterfly to simply flap our wings and show faint instances of our beauty.

Haunting, darling. A fantastic Chofu. Steven Silvey going into the history of poetry creating Chofu and you dear going deep into my heart with your blue butterfly poem.

You certainly bring a sweet justice to this type of poetry. This was sooo lovely, with such wonderful imagery and flow!very excellent work!!

Butterflies live briefly and serve their purpose which is to lay eggs but we humans enjoy the isght of them even though we curse their offspring for feeding on our plants

[Dj Golden]

You certainly get the feel of a stormy day and someone standing on a beach watching a butterfly in flight...or at least I do. Good capture of the mood, and an excellent chofu.

Lovely! Catches the fluttery flightiness of the butterfly so well ...

[Donald Meikle]

You are definitely enjoying Chofu............I am definitely enjoying your joy

[Clarisse Nanoit]

Nice. Short, but definitely gives a very vibrant glimpse of a butterfly. Great Job!
