From across the way you spot one
sitting quietly, moving slightly
probably the prettiest thing youve ever seen so close,
you watch for a moment that ends to soon,
she takes to the air and your heart flutters with her,
she settles again soon, surprisingly closer,
you reach out with hope,
just one touch,
but stop, knowing should you near her,
this beauty will be gone forever,
you think to catch her but then a little more,
her beauty, her freedom they walk hand in hand,
stop thinking, stop trying, relax where you are,
with luck your admiration and love will bring her to you,
because you can never catch a butterfly.
