Butterflies Are Beautiful

The story of overcoming
Once the worm but now it flies
from a broken shell to unchained skies
Free spirit butterflies are beautiful
The story of romancing
Chasing one another across endless flowers
not really trying to get away dancing for hours
Captivating butterflies are beautiful
The story of devotion
Despite all the rumors of infidelity
only one true love natural chemistry
Faithfulness butterflies are beautiful
The story of imagination
A butterfly sings a love song in the ear of a young maiden
may I kiss the only flower colorfully rich and nectar laden
Inspirational butterflies are beautiful
The story of beauty
With all the colors of the rainbow upon your wings
stirring the inner parts of man with your lovely things
Beautiful butterflies are beautiful

Thanks very much, Chris! I wanted the feel of free verse, with rhyme, like a butterfly dancing. I hope I got it?
