Butterfly Milk

Butterfly Milk
Butterfly Milk is a poem about a moment in time. A beautiful, awakening of the senses through
observation of nature and a child's response.
..On a sunny summer afternoon as we walked in the park, a flutter of butterfly wings danced past
us. They made a soft landing on a group of colorful flowers. My four year old grandson and I
stopped to watch them sip nectar from the flowers. I explained that nectar was a special drink for
the butterflies. In response he said, "oh, like milk" Time stood still! The sweetness of the moment
triggered emotions and the poem was born.
Butterfly Milk is an illustrated poem written for children and for the child within. It is for you to
enjoy. The poem received Honorable Mention at the 2008 San Francisco Writers Conference in
the children's picture book category. Since 2005, Butterfly Milk has been presented to elementary
schools, preschools, libraries, and private collectors.
