Butterfly Wishes

How I wish I was a Butterfly My home among the fragrant flowers The colors of my wings Blending perfectly with the runway of oranges, purples and blues My best friend the honey bee Buzzing pleasantly in my ear all the day long I listen to him without saying a word We make a perfect pair My tiny lungs filled with the summer air so sweet This perfect life Floating above the earth My feet rarely touching the ground The harmony of Mother Nature singing in my veins I flap my wings without ever missing a beat So happy So content I wake suddenly as I fall back to earth My vibrant wings melt away into my dreamscape As reality crashes through my consciousness A thought chases the last of my dream away Oh, how I wish I was a butterfly 10/03/2019 Writing Challenge, October-Butterfly-Poetry Contest Sponsor Dear Heart-Wishkobe Ode
