Write something about a "Butterfly". It could be in any form of poetry. There is no limit in you're imaginations, you could be as vague or as realistic as you want. I will write one too and I look forward to reading your poems :)

Why the Butterfly

They say we flit through windows

In the middle of the night

When the cobblers, thieves, and widows, 

Creep and weep by candlelight

They say we steal the butter

They made to wet their bread

They say it would be better

If all of us were dead

We churn our soil with poison

Into butter sow we salt

Their wings we take our joys in

A precious trophy of our faults
