A tiny little creature has today taken flight Weaving its wings through the morning sunlight An emotional farewell to a place you have called home Leaving behind your village sad, lifeless and alone You came upon us 10 days ago Glistening in the sunshine, sparkling so You have left me with a spirit to live And willingness to always forgive May you fly with grace and skill, May you take that trip beyond the hills. Lil’ butterfly fly to the stars Live life to the full here and afar |

If you want to improve on your rhyming poetry...take a look at the meter and see how many syllables there are per each line of poetry. Sort of like.... I came to see the stars and gaze upon the moon as Saturn chases Mars and the cow eats the spoon each line has six syllables. could have been 8, 10, 12...depends on the writer and what each line becomes as length is added or taken away.... I do like your poem...It is a beautiful write, with some awesome scenery. Just trying to follow your critique message and give you a pointer or two.... One thing that some people take advantage of is "Poetry for Dummies".... a book that has some very good pointers in it. |
