Dear Butterfly
by Beth K Hannah I envy your grace and beauty
Your untouched innocence
Sweet seduction
And unaffected movements
Stylish prose
And sensational ability to
Mingle with rainbows
I'm stuck on Earth
Attached to a wallet
To my curtains and sofa
A nonexisting happiness
And my own fears of flying
Please lovely fey,
How do I grow my own wings? 07/06/2003 Author's Note: "You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake" ~Tyler Durden

| Posted by David R Spellman on 07/08/03 at 04:25 AM Very beautifully, though also sadly expressed. I liked alot of the imagery here, esp. "mingling with rainbows" and the phrase "attached to a wallet" says so much. Very well written. |
