So who are you
O’ little one
To catch my eye upon this earth,
Why, I’m so light
That when in flight
My wings are twice my girth.

And what do you do
With wings today
My angel dust prey tell me,
Why, I dance in love
For romance above
And little flowers plenty.

And why do you
Dance so daintily
In search for lovers handy?
Why, I dance for joy
A natures ploy
But lovers I not any.

So tell me when
The time of day
A lover you hope to match,
Why, half past three
Beyond oak tree
A lover I hope to catch

But tell me sir
To who you are
To ask me questions many,
Who am I?
A romantic guy
And you my butterfly candy!

With a twitch of your wand, I could see this as a child's poem. But for us Old Folks, all I can say is "Well done sir!" So glad to have you aboard!

So it is.
I just felt like writing something light and refreshing and behold, it appeared as if by magic..

Ditto on the refreshing! In fact, it kind of reminded me of..um...well, a nursery rhyme. Good job.

This really makes me smile...a conversation with a butterfly. Enchanting!
