At family gatherings it's been years since I've seen them.....
I look up and notice......
they are all around me......

fluttering wings
swaying bodies
whispers of life
When did they all become such beautiful butterflies?
They fly in and out
tending their young
twittering
hovering
suspended in time
pure loveliness
A flurry of
life
grace
tender beauty

they have evolved into
living masterpieces
works of art
ornaments of nature
my beloved
BUTTERFLIES
for all my nieces and the lovely young women in our life

Boys don't like beautiful things? Give us some space. Maybe some toads, large beetles, snakes, puppies, BB guns.

Did you get a copy of "Laugh Out Loud"?
Haha. Actually I like those things too except the BB guns. May pass on the snakes but they are ok😊
