Fleeting Love Affair
Haiku
Like a bullet train
You hit, lit, and left my life.
A butterfly ride.

Writer's notes: It's the final challenge for
James & Oneg's Summer Extravangza Challenge.
I was tagged for one of these, but then broke my toe so the pain limited by concentration span 🙈. This is my first extra-curricular challenge on here and I hope to do more.
Per their post, "The Break Out of Your Cocoon” challenge 🦋
Butterfly poems are a genre of poetry that use the butterfly as a symbol or metaphor to explore themes such as transformation, growth, beauty, and the fleeting nature of life. Have a go at one.🌺
This past month, we definitely grew. We grew in our own skills, our abilities, and definitely as a community.🦋
Remember, that just because it’s the last challenge, that doesn’t mean there’s a time limit on any of the previous challenge. If a year from now you’d like to try one out (again even), that’s awesome.🌺
Here’s another writer’s fine example of how this can be done:
Thank you for coming on this journey with us. Let us all bloom and fly high! 🦋
