Have you seen a million butterflies
shimmering on a field of blue sky
reflecting sun in iridescent hues
fluttering like a million goosebumps
your warm breath inflicts upon me

A million caterpillars pupate
dreaming of a flower's sweetest dew
dreaming of wings rivalling her petals
molten body in the white heat of friction
a beating heart is now wings of passion

Have you seen a million butterflies,
flapping wings on my wet and sticky fingers?
