azure beauty spread wings filament-passing joy waits by windowsill "I am not now that which I have been." |

Very fine...right on with the form/syllable count, line number and concrete vocabulary, no metaphor. Well at least I think so, I'm not totally certain what 'filament-passing' means. Can you help me with that phrase? I totally enjoyed the read, though, cuz mystery for me gets me to ask questions...at least sometimes. |

Sunshine: I love a butterfly's whisper...pass it on. Mysteria: although I've studied butterflies within a lab setting, I still become fixed watching them and look forward to their arrival in spring. Janet Marie and Melissa: thank you for the gift of beautiful buttterlies. VAS: I may have failed classic form with "filament"; however, I believe that delicate butterfly wings can act as translucent conduits of joy. "I am not now that which I have been." |
