Clock's hands are fragile


Oh my!
On the blossoms 
Of the apple tree
You, butterfly 
Keep sipping 
The nectar 
of the honey 
As long as you desire
No police inspector 
No dissenting voices 
Curbing your choice 
Just the flowers 
Offering 
Dense brown syrup 
With the wind's sway 
Stirring the DNA
Blurring the universe 
Spectrum of blank verse 
Regardless of the purse 
No stress 
Just embrace, press 
and caress 
In excess too
Nile in overly blue 
Don't digress 
Even for a moment 
Yesterday, today 
and tomorrow 
All illuminated 
On your wings 
No strings 
Agile in style 
The clock's hands 
Are fragile
