This 5-7-5 about butterflies, Caught In Time, has the proper set up and reminds me of that insect collection that our biology teacher made us assemble during the summer. I learned a lot.

Hello, my friend,

Wild bu/tter/fly pinned =5
to pa/per un/der clear glass =7
Fro/zen blue beau/ty=5...............................good syllable count

the first two lines are grammatically connected, the last line is an observation. Good job.

This is a thoughtful and well written 5-7-5 about what we consider beautiful. We'd like to preserve it at any cost. Better to enjoy them while living. A good entry for the contest. Marilyn

My uncle pinned butterflies, I don't know why, I would rather capture beauty in a poem. You certainly did with yours. Your words captured the beauty of the butterfly both figuratively and literally. Well done.

Beautifully executed 5-7-5 poem that addressed the topic of the butterfly. Each line met the required syllables and flowed very well. The message did not seem forced and the art work perfectly depicted the poem.
