Image for the poem swallowtail

swallowtail

reaching through reams
of darkness
your cocoon
a mere twist of fate
torn through the seams
of time
expanding superbulous

oh how you fly
on glorified wings
to the most treasured places
mingling your essence
in every flower

dusting your beauty
into the hearts of every
inner child
who longs to capture
everything you are ...



if we only understood
your short journey
joy actualized
into our bellies
where laughter
lifts you to the heavens
