A Butterfly's Wings

Dear Mrs butterfly I ask that you remain perfectly still 
‘For if your wings quiver for the slightest of  moment’s  ‘
then that action could kill .

I’ll bring you nectar and keep you warm and safe 
‘ but for the sake of us all remain static in that place .

Oh beautiful lady pray don’t flap your wing 
‘because of the unthinkable ramifications that it could possibly bring.

Stay where you are and please never forget ‘
That the world apparently balances on your fluttering effect ,XX
