The Dance Of The Butterfly

The Dance Of The Butterfly

A Poem by Cherrie Palmer
"

10 word contest

"

A quick twirl  of the ball n step left me without breath.

The pattern of light in front of the window fed my imagination to create,

as I continued to sway and move with the violin.

My senses were alive while a butterfly did float by alongside my chiffon,

making me giggle with glee in the tea-room that makes my heart sing.

I laid bare my soul as I danced with all my might.

     And slumbered in restful dreams waiting for the morning light.

So soft and floating as a beautiful and mystical butterfly flitting through the air. Lovely and gracious writing!

awwwwww that was wonderful. Loved the imagery. I could see a woman in a chiffon gown dancing around the room while butterfly flutters by and she grins at the beauty of such a delicate creature. She dances with all her might until she tires, then sleeps and dreams waiting for the morning light.
How beautiful Cherrie
