shared memory—
the flutter of a million wings
in the monarch sanctuary

    __Nifty, and so well seen Jari, your "wealth of wings"_! This, an old echo, from a long ago scribble book.

    listen…
    within the silent flowers
    a butterfly

    I also sent a response but your editor must have cancelled it out. It was mentioned on my Facebook Poetry Site. https://www.facebook.com/groups/807679459328998/

    This is a truly beautiful piece, heartfelt congratulations!
    It has both depth and gorgeous, unique, multi-layered images.
    I've noticed that the loveliest pieces with high literary value are penned by authors who are not well-known names which is really sad.
