Butterfly Wings

butterfly wings
dressed in
dented armor
a cast
once placed
needed as a
healing charmer
I wish to
throw away
the heavy
but is it
too soon
how many
times must
a burdened
butterfly
fly around
the moon

Helen,
Never with the armour. May you soar. I will always love your poetry. Thanks.

slick one,
may your armor be cellophane
and the arrows be lip touch
smiles...enjoyed it ms

I love the finale!
Well done, indeed

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

the butterfly must fly until he lands

wonderful poem

Distance is the prison for our bodies, but no prison could weaken our passion.
