Butterflies on the Vine

Butterflies on the Vine

A Poem by Jesse W.

Deep green, dark purple
Mixed with fluttering yellow
Define the vineyard

The butterflies land
Ride the vines as though they were
Birds on power lines

Watching as callous, course 
Rough fingers pluck fresh ripe grapes 
Ready for their wine
