A butterfly caught my eye,

A cabbage white, tiny, fragile,

Dancing on the cool, still air,

Fragile, powerful, strong enough

To lift the cloudy garden's gloom

                                                         And make me smile.

. . . and that wonderful progression left me with one on my face, too, Moya. Thank you for that and the image resplendent poem.

i missed your poems so...i feel as though you have returned and brought spring with you.
This is a wonderful poem, Moya.

How I love those sweet and delicate whites. And the blues that will be the first to appear here, if spring ever arrives!
