No Foto Friday so ..........

Butterfly

Enticed by the bright city lights,
a butterfly quietly flits;
one of the more colourful sights
that throng the dark but vibrant streets.

She flutters about red lanterns
with a fine shamisen in tow;
she plays in teahouses and taverns
pausing only to take a bow.

The bright hues of her kimono
fill up the emptiness of night;
gay and chatty, she seems to know
how to raise her tipsy ’ delight.

Regretfully, when daylight breaks
in this Land Of The Rising Sun,
the sleepy butterfly slowly makes
her way back to the cocoon she spun.

Hi Lee: Memoirs of a Geisha was one of the most interesting books and the movie was fantastic. Nice poem.
