Butterfly Dreams2

Beautiful colors are worn so bold.
Underneath the glory extends.
Taking notice you see yellow gold.
Tracing the design it never ends.
Everyone specifically so different.
Rendering possibilities galore.
Floating gently, never indifferent.
Letting senses prepare to adore.
Your eyes witness their effervescent.

Daylight fading you take a lasting look.
Realizing the end of such iridescent.
Earning a place in the mind like a book.
Activating a pleasurable memory to hold.
Mesmerizing your thoughts so bold.
Seeing butterflies gone, leaves you cold.
