Baby Butterfly

By Sapphirefly

---

Softly flickering,

The baby wings

Little one

Sweet honey thing

Bouncing to and fro

From flower to newest leaf

And then to me

Only the sparsest second

To revel in your goodness

Happy little thing

Your velvet shape

And eyes that blink so

In the sunny morning

Pretty love

And you bob your honey head

Off you go now

The next flower waits.
