There Are No People At This Place

By Vickie Versace Mullins

There Are No People At This Place is about the Fuchsia Butterfly, Khaki Kangaroo, Emerald Frog (and others ) who represent people, that aren't really (nice) people, especially in the dating world.

In one's search for love, there is always a Fuchsia Butterfly, the stellar character who is one of a kind. He is all that. In the day when these poems were written, my mentor Dr. Turner said "Even if you go to Higbees you won't find a Fuchsia Butterfly " He is flashy and flighty, hard to get as he is unable to be pinned down.

As the plot continues with these poems, the colorful characters, who unlike the Fuchsia Butterfly certainly have their flaws, represent the dance of young love, and depict all the emotional ups and downs of it, and the anguish of wanting what you can't have.

We all go through it. And the saying "You have to kiss a lot of toads before you find your prince" applies here; the prince being "Mr. Right," and a passage into the next phase of love, the more mature, "real" love of give and take, which comes after one gets up and dusts themselves off after the game, to try again.
