Fragile Wishes

Oh,
                                                     I wish
                                                    I was a 
                                                blue butterfly.
                          I would flap my wings and soar way up high.
                       But, wait, you guys live three months and then die.
                                         I’ve changed my mind.
                                             Keep your wings.
                                                     I have
                                                      years.
