Flutter By Moment
it alights
softer than a whisper
on my sleeve
almost
as if it sought me out
I sit
relax
breathe in the gentle air -
the butterfly
spreads out its wings -
this moment
I am
at one
with nature
sharing the fragility
imagining
a place where all
could feel secure -
wearing
the butterfly
like a heart
on my sleeve
