My Butterfly

I see you hop from flower to flower
but yet you don’t sit with me
must too busy spending your time
instead of chatting so graciously 

I’ve watched you  many days now
coming as you may, leaving as you wish
but please don’t leave so soon
you keep flying away without a swish. 

I’m sure you know I am here
if only you would ask me why
that I sit patiently and wait 
it’s  you  I want as my butterfly
