Today's Prompt is

Write a Butterfly cinquain which consists of a nine-line syllabic form with the pattern two, four, six, eight, two, eight, six, four, two. It is made to be centered, so that the words form a butterfly... you may use any subject...OURS IS


Sunlight
Maybe shorter
But the work must go on
so the project gets completed
and as
the final touches are in place
the gentle sunlight fades
but happily
it's done

YOUR TURN
ENJOY
