Of A Pink Butterfly

Flitter, flutter,
Float about.
Weaving in
Then fly and shout
With joy of life
So free of strife,
Alive with love,
No fear nor doubt.

Pitter, patter,
Prance today.
Twisting, turn,
Then pirouette
To grab an arm
And swing from harm
In my embrace
Content to stay.

Twitter, Tatter,
Sing a song.
Joyful notes
That don't belong
To earth's dark hold.
So young and bold,
So free of hurt,
So free of wrong.

Struggle, snuggle,
Which to choose?
Fleeting rest
Then breaking loose
To dance again,
Spin while she can,
For summer's joy
Does end too soon.
