Butterfly Eyes
My butterfly eyes
Lashes afluttering
Winking in the wind
They close
Like butterfly wings
Folding together
As sails of a yacht
Swaying in the cross breezes
Of the imagination
by Jemia

capturing butterflies
it does not
seem fair
to follow you,
watch my
chance when
you land,
to drink,
intoxicate
yourself
on sweet
nectar,
to pin
your wings
back with
finger
and thumb,
to impede
your freedom.

weightlessness
A very common caterpillar
eating leaves non-stop.
She dreams of being a butterfly...
Could have been a butterpillar
or it could even be a caterfly...
Ends of the same Gordian knot.
eating leaves non-stop.
She dreams of being a butterfly...
Could have been a butterpillar
or it could even be a caterfly...
Ends of the same Gordian knot.

Flying Low
The butterfly poet
Has wings
Hasn't mastered flying just yet
Having some adjustments made
By a local vet
And also aware
That i'm afraid of heights
So flying low
(Has other analogies
Don't you know!)

Caterpillars
Life
Sometimes cocooned
Sometimes a caterpillar
Always awaiting that butterfly moment
Take wing
Beautiful butterflies
Learn to fly again
And to float
On the soft gentle breezes
Of hope

The Blue Butterfly (3x Haiku Acrostic)
Be blue butterfly
Upon a gentle zephyr
Tickle the breezes
Take heed butterfly
Else your frail beautiful wings
Race away to soon
Fly low, in the sun
Lest your butterfly wings burn
Your beauty scorched
by Jemia

A Sight To See
One of the prettiest
sights I ever seen
was a mud hole
with about 200
Butterflies of all
colors and sizes
sitting around in it
flapping their wings
