THE BUTTERFLY GIRL

THE BUTTERFLY GIRL

Her silence echoes throughout....

Shadowed footsteps filter her path

Tiptoe whispers caught by the wind

Caution to those who may have sinned

Beckoning all with her mantis display

Butterfly wings then show the true way

Betray the girl....

The seeker of souls

Pray your not the next one she calls

Upon her pedestal she awaits...

Those who chose to seal their fate

Foolish presumptions leading the blind

To the butterfly's lair

The last of her kind...

An eternal child of the immortal land

The seeker of truth's

With butterfly hands

Eradicates the corrupt

Left with no legs to stand

Forever thy dwell within her abode

Fly evermore in her tumultuous world....

Loved this one Carey!  This is quite different to what your usual write, and I don't just mean subject matter, it has a slightly different feel to it.  Although it did have a rhyming scheme, it didn't feel the driving force behind it, which I liked from you.   All the way through this write although there was a darkness, sort of foreboding with her; there was also a sadness, a loneliness which you depicted beautifully.  Loved the story you told!  A vote and nom from me too:)

Would love to see you do a 'prose' (don't ask Jasons' opinion on that one ha ha!).  Just to see you write your way through an emotion or a time or place you can pinpoint.  I think you would create a really emotive piece Carey.

Rachel...Thanks for taking the time to read this and giving your honest feedback...I do love writing a story ' 'behind the poem' and I am glad to hear that you can differentiate between my styles/subject matter...Thus the reason I asked you to give me your opinion :)...I'm gonna do a little research on some different types of poetry to give my active little mind a new challenge :) 

Cheers for your sincere feedback...means a lot :) x

Your writing is brilliant Carey, and I don't want you thinking that I suggest you change your style, rhyming is really hard to do WELL!  Like you say a challenge is as good as a rest, and like you I have a an active writing mind, so any suggestions would be welcome LOL!!  Always glad to give feedback .... what you want to do with it is another matter ha ha.  Cheers hun:)
