Beautiful picture between mom and son. Very nice rhyme and flow.
Of dancing jewels in raindrops' flight, as water shines on a moonlit night - great imagery and description.
Best wishes in the butterfly contest.

Excellent poem. Lines floated good to writing.
My grandchild's like a butter fly,
a flitting vapour floating by,

Comment from Doc Holiday
He sounds like a real blessing! Full of life and energy and probably gives you more smiles than one can imagine. You did a wonderful job in this composition describing this angel.

Comment from Bobbi22
Little boys can seem like butterflies the way they seem to be constantly in motion and then suddenly stop to take a breath before the flutter away again onto their next adventure. Very well written. Good luck in the contest.

An interesting take on the butterfly contest, Roy. i liked your comparison of the butterfly to your grandchild in this piece, always on the move and never stopping for a rest, well, only occasionally. Good luck in the contest...Jacob

Comment from Pam (respa)
Very nice picture and well written poem. I like how you begin with comparing your grandson to a butterfly. Very tender and beautiful. But he is also busy, as young children often are!
Very nice imagery in stanza two like smile brings light and dancing jewels. The conclusion is very nice and ends like it began with effective comparisons.

Comment from patcelaw
This is my usual review to a person who mentions a grandson.
Across The Room
When you look across the room,
And see your grandson smile,
Why not stop everything,
Just to play with him a while?
For all too soon the years,
May take him to a distant place,
And many will be the days,
You'll long to see his face.
Don't let those precious years,
Slip by until he's grown,
To take some time to cherish him,
And make your love well known.
For as you strive to love him,
The way God wants you to,
You'll build such precious memories,
That he'll show his love to you.

Thank you Patricia, for the beautiful poem, I agree with these, we didn't miss with my girls, as relatively mature parents and now grandparents we absorb that advice with exuberance! Beautifully kind, blessings, Roy.

What a beautiful poem to write about your grandson. As the grandmother to a gorgeous ten month old girl, I understand every single word. They are so full of innocence, it fills your heart with wonder every time you see them.
Well done, and good luck in the competition. This is an excellent entry.

Excellent pride and special love for your grandson expressed here, Roy.
Clever twist on the contest theme, though I hope he grows up more like a tiger than a butterfly. Just kidding, as I realise you're highlighting his gentle/sensitive side - and that's great in a boy. ;-)
Best wishes, Ray.

And plays cricket for Australia, already a good sportsman and musician, great review and very kind review, Ray, blessings, mate, Roy.

Are you serious, Roy - he plays cricket for Australia? WOW!
You HAVE to tell me his name...PLEASE! Then I can feel a special connection as I cheer you lot on.
After my last reply, I sure hope it's not David Warner. :~)
