Arises
From "Modern Love And Other Poems"
A butterfly touched me
With its silken fingers
And told me to close my eyes,
Because she would reveal me
A secret!.
And once I closed my eyes
And opened my mouth to ask
Who was she?
But she reached back at once
With her wet wings and left me there
Trembling as a fool!
