Hello Gypsy :)
I enjoyed reading your haiku.
I love the whole presentation, it is as pretty as butterfly on a rose!
Lovely description of the butterfly and the satori line is perfect - romantic, even :)
Best wishes as always, Debra x

Comment from Beri Bee
Sweet encounter! Honey rose! This haiku surprises so nicely. For me, I always think of butterflies as fragile. I think it was a music teacher who told me they represent love with a tragic end (think Madame Butterfly). So, my mind immediately went to that vein. But then, the honey rose and sweet encounter. Made me ponder... sweet encounters are fragile, probably honey roses too. Love it! Thanks!

Comment from karenina
First, I want THAT shade of orange! It would be lovely on my bedroom wall! (Okay that's out of the way...)
I often marvel that for such a delicate creature, the butterfly seems to capture our attention and imagination ~ so frequently thought of as a sign from a loved one who has passed that they are watching over us.
Nobody does this form as beautifully as you...

Comment from Carolyn Dooley
The color is beautiful. I love orange. It looks like sherbet. And the butterfly is lovely. It is amazing how this picture relaxes. That fragile butterfly flapping its thin wings. This is a great poem. Thank you for sharing.

I like your use of alliteration and consonance (fragile butterfly flutters) and the connection of the "sweet encounter" of the last line to the "honey rose." Lovely picture!

I loved everything about this haiku, Gypsy.
The picture is beautiful, but your words
are equally beautiful. The font colors
worked well, too. Your words paint an
awesome picture of the fragile butterfly.
Respectfully, Jan
