I stopped my car just yesterday On a whim of natures play I walked up to a railed fence With an eye...so content The traffic whizzed...I never budged My eyes were glued to the loop and dodge The orange and black of dizzy wings The smell of flowers...hints of spring The breeze of February...promised warmth This woman who would do no harm She rested here upon my finger I edged her closer...still she lingered The magic of a friend in flight The soul to spirit...what a sight We called upon this silent vow To trade a smile for a fuzzy bow Just me and she...this one of magic Her flight of fancy dodging traffic My wish to travel where she goes Her wings so still upon this rose I gave her time to rest from flight She gave me friendship...eyes so bright How many ME's does she see or feel... Is she with comfort...is this all real The colors vibrant, her need to dance The miracle spoken with silent chance We stayed glued for half an hour A raindrop came and then a shower I placed her under the rail fence I left her there and off I went This time was special for she and I My wishes are hers when she flies I'll always recall this wonderment This Monarch afternoon I spent When nature trusted me again With a bu*terfly and a new friend
