Nature/Environment Of This Butterfly
Karyn Indursky
Oh to be a beautiful butterfly
soaring in blissful harmony every day
smelling sweet aromas of tempting nectar
begging to be a petal seat only
for precious creatures small enough to
spread their pollen from here to there
as these rainbow butterflies travel through
laughing children trying to steal freedom
from these glorious gifts darting before their
smiling eyes follow them wherever they
go with their prune feet getting dirty
with singing giggles leading them into
an awaiting forest of confusion when
they're forced to realize they're lost
and they gloomily return safely home
not having their butterfly in netting
while the witty butterfly keeps soaring
into what looks like oblivion to
people trying to capture a glimpse
of this butterfly.
