Comment from SimianSavant

Good

Hello! Your rhymes all work effectively. This is a good piece that would benefit from a few edits.

At once, a kaleidoscope of color, embowing
sheaths of dazzling lights carry me <= noun is kaleidoscope (singular), verb is carry (plural). It should be "carries".

replaced instantly <= it is unclear what you mean here. "Replaced" is a somewhat passive verb. Maybe you want something more active?

I emerge morphed into being a beautiful multi-colored butterfly <= "being" is redundant. So, I think, is "multi-colored". Your kaleidoscope loses color if you refer to it too much. It will shine brighter if you have something to contrast it against. Most butterflies have lots of colors, so better to let the reader imagine it.

my mosaic of shimmering energy flutters, a mate flies by. <= this is a run-on sentence. You can fix it by changing "flutters" to "fluttering".

Thanks for the read!

Beautifully penned an illustrated poem for the prom, J. I felt like I was on a kaleidoscope dream just reading it. I am just returning to review this. Thank you for the pleasure today. Sending along the very best to you and yours and blessings for your writing day, Sally :))

The rhyme scheme of a sonnet. This would be beautiful if you used iambic pentameter. You have some great descriptive phrases here. You should do well with your club entry.

Thank you Paul, I am such a failure when it comes to iambic meter ... try and try again I do I seemingly do not have rhythm, two left feet and writers block ( my excuse ) thanks Jim

I wonder how few views mortality as the flight of a butterfly? I like the simile. .......................................................................................................................

You brought to colour of our world into your poem here and the world would be a sad place without it. The thirds stanza is my favourite, so descriptive with rich shimmering words, energy infused with flight, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

I had to get deep into this, to be able to really understand this. For, you write kind complicated. Nevertheless, you did your thing. Keep Writing. And try to stop by to talk. Either way, stay connected

This is an excellent poem in all respects--skillfully and creatively written and appealingly descriptive, allowing its character to drift off into a majestic place of vivid colors, become enveloped, and emerge as a lovely butterfly.
