Butterfly Eyes

They know the answers to the questions
that we have yet to ask.
A kiss of innocence and raw intentions
are never concealed beneath a mask.
Beauty is in the hearts
of the minds we see as scorned.
Yet through this life, they travel best,
angels on earth are born.
Butterfly eyes see life's true bounty.
"Forever gold" is what they'll stay.
Never to unfold like a wilting flower
for the beauty of dawn is found each day.
