Excellent

This is a gorgeous 5-7-5 poem and a perfect entry for thr prompt. I love the imagery of the mystical butterfly and it's looking into heaven. Readers will have different personal interpretations for this one, beautiful!
Best Wishes

Exceptional

I'm becoming addicted to these 5-7-5 poems, and yours is the best I've read. In a few short words, you captured the essence of grace. The picture accompanying your poem is beautiful and adds to the poem's mood. gayla

Good

It is appropriate this time of year to be writing about ghosts and goblins. The butterfly described here appears to be beautiful like those in that wonderful picture you chose.
But please examine line 2 which has 8 (not 7) syllables. The contest judges are rule sticklers.

Excellent

Some very well chosen words used effectively here in this short format poem for the 5/7/5 contest - beautiful phrase: 'ethereal grace' and a great pic to illustrate
