Just one noun can create such a scene or create a terrible void.

I love how this poem doesn't rhyme, but it is very strong in expression and not at all fragmented! As if it is not a poem, but someone wise whispering a wonderful advice!

Calling
Well this little butterfly will live longer than a day Shobana. A delightful little flutter expertly defined, you have an eye for beauty which really should be two eyes.

I so agree, it would be unfinished without! I plant flowers to attract butterflies; there's something wonderful about them flitting to one flower then another! They add a charming grace to Mother Nature! Wonderful imagery, too! Love you always, too Your sam

got a liitle thrown of with "came a calling" . Even people from the boonies don't talk like this anymore, "came calling" would work fine. Everything else works--except the last line, "the portrait unfinished without"--without what? Why not just "a portrait unfinished"? These are just my thoughts, but let me know what you think.
