today,
a butterfly came into my garden.
as she dances in unison to the arty balinese theme,
i watched her flutter-
her sweet nonchalance
permeates the air..
through shimmering light,
her beauty was eternal.
an aphrodite of everyones dream.
as she captivates my gaze,
then resting on my finger,
a camaraderie entered.
inside my envelope,
i too fluttered.
i became a butterfly she is!
what seems momentary
became a gamut of embrace,
of kisses,
of one.
what seems impossible
was en routed
because today,
in fantabulous effervescence,
a butterfly
came into my garden..

It is so wonderful that you noticed and enjoyed the butterfly. Not everyone does. Of course, you are a true poet, so it is natural that you would see all the beauty that rests in the winged one.
Love this poem, fiveloaf.
Peace and Joy,

You not only watched the butterfly, you became the butterfly. Then you reated the experience in eloquent fashion to those who cared to read it. And yu did so quite well! Very nice!

Isadora
hey tq isadora!
sweet.. and nice use of metaphor…butterfly in the garden ~
thanks heaven..
This is beautiful! A really unique take on the prompt! Thanks!
tq donna!
How beautifully you became One with the butterfly. We can, you know, be One with all. I first experienced this as a little girl when I went inside a dragonfly. Of course, the grownup dismissed the whole thing and I felt ashamed, as if I had lied. We have so much beauty around us and how often we fail to notice. Good for you that you not only noticed it, became One with it, but then wrote this lovely poem so we could share it with you. a big hug for you! pat
thank you pat! i accept your hug haha!
Her sweet nonchalance permeates the air………..Just being beautiful and sweet is enough. Glad her graceful fluttering caught your attention.
tq dan- still remember your funny poem hahaha!
You know they say if a couple stays together long enough they start to favor one another right? – Sorry couldn’t resist.
“what seems momentary
became a gamut of embrace,
of kisses,
of one.”
Ah, the joining of hearts and becoming one. Beautifully told Fiveloaf.

Yes. About this time of year giant butterflies come here to die from Africa. I found it very upsetting at first. Now if I see one I bless it.

To be one with nature and life like that, in a poem, in a thought, and still be distant from it somehow I think that is great 🙂 (Not sure I make sense here lol)
hahah yea you made sense ina.. thanks!
The winged one, one so colorful.Your going into one is actually being able to savor the myriads of beauty that nature offers. Appreciating it from a butterfly’s eyes certainly opened up countless of options in life. Beautifully done!
thanks kaykuala..

Lovely read and image. Reminds me of a time when I had my back and front windows open and a butterfly flew into my apartment from one side, flitted around a bit, and then flew out the other window. I felt like I had been touched by the universe!
