Butterfly, with dampened wings
Don’t fly far from me
the droplets that weigh you down
Not only magnify the radiance
But yet the subtle strength
in those soft mosaics
The winds of the world may always seem
to blow a turbulent course
But let my breath lift you higher
From my lips an upwind force
Gliding from leaf to leaf
Your conquest is all but inevitable
But to rest on the breast of ones breath
Can bring peace to the worry
Of challenges still left.
So butterfly
Don’t fly far from me
For ones eyes need such beauty
To give a reason to see
And purpose to breathe
Than simple survival
Through the storms of our seasons
Ones flight
Is to the delight
To those on the ground
Blowing in the wind.
