The Blue Sky

I was looking at the sky
and I saw something fly by

it was not a bird, it was not a drop of rain,
it was a butterfly flying around mundane.

I really like the last line in this one--leaves the reader with something to think about. Much said in just four lines. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and for taking time to comment on my poem. Keep on writing. Karen
