Ciao Marco!

I love the idea and the picture you seek to create.


That said ....

I read your poem in my head and aloud and the second half ( at least for me) doesn't flow as well.

Just a suggestion :

Beautiful butterfly suckles on sweet Baby Blue Eyes

If you are adamant to use the word nectar ( instead of sweet)

Beautiful butterfly suckles nectar from Baby Blue Eyes.

PS: after reading your version 1/2 a dozen times , it actually flowed better.

( but how many will takes the time to read a poem more than twice??)

    Your idea spurred me to review my wording. Your idea was good, but I chose a different path.

    As far as I know butterflies drink or sip nectar ...NURSE seems out of context here to me.

    I thought the flow in the SECOND part was jerky/not smooth instead you edited the first section which I liked.

    Anyway, the main thing is that you are happy.

    Ciao!

Your poem about baby blue eyes has a very nice flow to it. The picture is beautiful and compliments your poem. I like how your choice of words creates a poetic sound when read. Good luck.

    Cecelia,

    Thank you for that compliment about my word choices. Since I don?t write long verses, I need to be concise in my word selection. My poetry wheelhouse is most exclusively in the 5-7-5 syllable format. I dropped a few syllables to enter this contest (-;
