Thank you for your note about the butterfly varieties. I appreciated your title and parallel picture and wonderful salute to these creatures. Your rhymed quatrains and "kisses," "dreams" and "silent sighs" similes were very effective. Cheers to you and Teagan- Joan

A-w-w-w-wwwww...
Your granddaughter is a living doll, Tony.
I can't believe how big she's gotten. It seems like only yesterday I asked you if Teagan was a boy or girl. Remember?
This is such a lovely, well rhymed ode in true ballad form you have dedicated to Teagan.
Bravo!

That's a sweet picture of your granddaughter :) You have penned a sweet butterfly poem to go with her sweet picture. I didn't know there were so many kinds of butterflies with so many different names. The butterfly house was a highlight of our visit to Mexico a few years ago.

Cute, cute, and more cute. This is an adorable poem. I never knew any names of butterflies, except the monarch and the painted lady. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.

Such a beautiful poem about sharing imaginary butterflies between grandfather and granddaughter. It's hard being apart from the babies. They grow so fast. Your poem indicates you've overcome some of that hardship and remain close. Well done. :) Nancy
