The Two Hundred Ninetieth, October 17, 2011

I missed the butterflies
the sun was shining
but they weren't there
it made a difference

true the wind was high
the temperature was not
inconsequential details
they could have done it

they didn't know I guess
that my day needed them
they never got the memo
its ok tho... they can't read

  1. This poem could be literal...or not. It has amazing pathos without being sappy. Very, very nice.

  2. I like this poem expressing how you feel about missing the butterflies. Very sweet. I suggest the title for this poem to be butterflies.
