Brooke,
Another terrific topic to ponder "if Heaven ever visits Earth". There's one I had not thought about. I love the images your words project by use of great word choices and perfect meter. I really enjoy reading and writing in 8/6 syllable count. They always seem to come out singing!
All he best,
Rodger

This creates such beautiful thoughts and imagery. A delightful view of the world and the wonderful treasure the butterfly is. Heaven must have kaleidoscopes of butterflies. They create such beauty. I am impressed with how you can turn something so simple into a rare find.
Your writing is flawless in rhyme and meter. It gives me a fine example to shoot for.

How nice, butterflies as visitors from heaven. Such a beautiful thought. I did not know a group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope. Great imagination and wonderfull rhyme.
A little gem, this poem. Fia

So wonderful thoughts on a visitation from heaven. I imagen a troop of butterflies as messengers from above, they flit among the flowers as liitle burst of beauty and warmth. Great poem with a great picture, good stuff there, Brooke.

So lovely , as usual. Each time I read your work, it is like a drink from a sparkling fountain, in the middle of a scented garden. Really, you add something to my day.
Thank you.

Beautiful imagery and rhythm, Brooke. I have always considered butterflies to be 'Earth's Angels' nice to know I'm not alone on that score.

Thank you for sharing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

A stunning and colourful image. How appropriate that a group is called a kaleidoscope. En masse they are really stunning-truly a kaleidoscope of colour.
I love the entire presentation and the beautiful array of golden yellow in the images and text.
How very astute you have been to mesh all these elements together so well and maintain the stated meter and rhyme.

Very nice read. Beautiful sentiment. excellent construction.

I especially like the last stanze

If Heaven ever visits Earth,
I'm placing my request --
kaleidoscopes of butterflies
be there at my behest.

Beautiful
