A pink butterfly sits on the serene sea , dancing
two sides of her singing of soft petals
on the blues and on the waves
the wandering waters that allow her to be still
that allow her to dance with those pink wings
made of that one line of the rainbow
the one standing smile that sings of softness
sitting on the serene sea
a part of a rainbow moves to the blues of another place
travelling to balance by golden smiling sands
she sits one part of a whole
in a new place
held by wandering waters
held by the blues
always present by the singing sand made of lovely settled lines
or sometimes with those sandcastles
a place that has been helped to be that little bit more
because of someone else’s want and wish to build something different
a pink butterfly sits on the serene sea
a part of rainbow sits on wandering safe waters
two sides of her , complete
or just a part of a standing rainbow divided from the other parts of her real self
yet standing safely held by the blue balanced waves

- Comment from author about the poem: My sister gave me few words to use in this poem .. butterfly , pink and sea . I guess there’s a mention of that feeling of being complete / incomplete Feeling like a part who maybe feels in the distance Yeah I’m probably talking of my dissociation a little in this one But yes all parts of us need to feel safe / calm / looked after and in a nice place And yeah I always think butterfly’s look delicate and pretty , gentle

I really wish I had penned the following words ..
"a part of a rainbow moves to the blues of another place
travelling to balance by golden smiling sands
she sits one part of a whole
in a new place" ..

Thanks for the kind words , Neville 🙂 glad you liked those lines , and my poem
It felt like a nice one to write
Nice! You're right, all parts of us have the need to feel safe, calm, and looked after. Butterflies symbolize change, transformation....rebirth...hope! I personally like black butterflies. They're rare. But then again, I'm a little goth so no surprise there!! Lovely read! 🩷
Hi liz .. Thankyou 🙂 I love butterflies .. I often see white butterflies or those ones with red or orange / or even yellow sometimes
I’m not sure ever seen black ones
Yes , change.. I have been going through a spiritual awakening for a while ..
Glad you enjoyed my poem
Oh my! A wonderfully intense process isn't it? I can relate. Higher, deeper mental awareness. Which brings joy...but also tears. Letting go, finding peace etc. Rooting for you! 💛

Butterfly’s are lovely
Maybe it's not a pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow, but a place where all the butterflies live. Beautiful images here, "her singing of soft petals," "present by the singing sands made of lovely, settled lines." I love the ocean. You've used it brilliantly here to perpetuate your "butterfly" images.
