Catherine Johnson does a Monday Metaphor series on her blog found HERE. I participate whenever possible. Catherine posts a picture or pictures for inspiration. She always blogs her own ideas for the picture which never fail to bring a smile to my face. She is a fun and upbeat blogger. Catherine’s love for writing poetry is evident.
This week, Catherine posted a beautiful picture which inspired me to write a poem of my own. I hope you enjoy Butterfly.
Butterfly
Out from a cocoon of night
Filtered colors catch the light.
Vision springs
Spreading wings.
Beauty lifting off in flight.
