I once caught a butterfly,
so beautiful,
appealing,
flawless,
to my hearts eye,
it has a special
zeal for life...
It soared about in the wind so high
as if it was praising the sky.
Then I realized this butterfly,it
didn't belong to me, so I
had to set it free,
maybe
in another lifetime
it will
remember me....
but for now
I must let it go,
and if it returns, then
I would know
it loved me so...
