The Butterfly Flutters By

In her cocoon she sleeps safe and warm waiting for the day her wings are born. Tender hearted with dreams of flying high and for the day when everyone will notice the pretty little butterfly that flutters by. Strong and brave she will grace the sky in hues of blue and sunny yellow glistening in her eyes. Time is short but she will share with every perfectly designed wing, she'll bring to those who see, all her love for life and care. Touch her not and un-dust her wings for her fluttering brings stories ones mind can not see. Listen close to her wings for within the sound lies the story of the butterfly who's beauty astounds. The misty, morning, dew upon the rose, waits for her kiss of pleasure that only the rose will ever know. Her feet have been blessed by heaven abound to never have to touch the ground. Sit silently and watch and see, you will hear and see the sweetest of melodies, dancing in the sky as the butterfly flutters by.
