Butterflies And Kites...Goodnight Poem by elysabeth faslund

Butterflies And Kites...Goodnight

Rating: 5.0


Balloons on strings,
Sailing, bouncing June
Into July kites skimming
Tails like afternoon

Mosquito hawks on quiet
Water. There! The butterfly
Making its rounds of
Moonflowers' snow petals

Enticing emerald hummingbirds,
Giant moths soundlessly
Fluttering topaz and ruby
Wings. Again! The butterfly

Dips, bobs angel-blue wings.
Balloons, kites, put away
For the night. Hummingbirds,
Butterflies vanish....

There is peace....
