Butterflies
You remind me of butterflies
Dancing atop wildflowers.
At first, I am like a little boy chasing elusive fancies,
Always close to capturing a beauty, but never so.
And then there is you,
Serene, ethereal, and ever so graceful.
Suddenly, I find myself intrigued.
You are hiding amidst the blooms, oblivious to how magical you truly are.
Yet you enchant me with your faint trail of poetry.
Your iridescent wings caress my cheeks,
Serenading me in this evanescent meadow,
Planting soft kisses here and there.
Come here, and lay your wings gently on my shoulder.
Come here, and let me hold you in the palm of my soul.
I can’t help but fall in love with
How you give me butterflies all over.
