By Erika Davies
carnivorous mounds of butterflies tap at my toes
clicking at my hip
ten thousand types
hovering by with their own hello
delightful species
i lean over too far and i become one
i've crossed the line
longing for flight
i take speed
i glide
flitting and floating from flower to flower
bright and cheery
lemony dew
miss butterfly to you
