Ohhh this is so lovely - both sweet and bittersweet at the same time! I love that watching the butterflies has become a family tradition, and how it reminds Celeborn of times long past and friends who have passed on but it's still something that brings wonder and joy. I think this story is a wonderful blend of those two poetry prompts, too, with the cycles of nature and the passage of time both reflected. 

This was delightful to read, so poignant, such beautiful details. Thank you!

(And inspiring to create art for, although I didn't think I could do anything near as beautiful as your description of the butterflies and treetops. And I just love the idea of a misty-eyed Celeborn.)
