Poem Commentary

I miss playing with butterflies and stuff as a kid :) do you?

My Butterfly Friend...

Quiet little wings
brush soft kisses on my cheek
telling me "hello."

The small winged thing,
fluttering back and forth now,
asking me to play.

So I laugh and chase,
running after it through fields
of wildgrass and wheat.

The wind blows, and me
and my butterfly friend go
through a golden sea.

But then my friend goes,
flying high, caught in the wind,
and then Im alone...

'Til I see flowers,
with little bitty buggies...
And then I'm happy.

It reminded me of childhood times when I let butterflies take a break on my arm or cheek, and then followed them about their business as though it were my own. Harv

You make me smile more than any poet I read on here, Audrey. This is such a fun poem, I remember chasing butterflies when I was young. What else could we do when there was no internet? :P
