Elegies of November
-------------------
I once fell in love with a butterfly
Whose wings were as blue as heaven's sky
I gave her the nectar my heart had made
By the gliss of the gentle glade
But away on giggles of sunlight did she fly.

*****
Fly, little butterflies, out to sea!
Fly, be all that you can be!
Some fly light like a laugh of glee
Some fly soft like a long low sigh
But all to the haven where each would be:
Fly!
(Adapted from Lepidoptera Symbology)

You are a smile, sweet and simple
Won't you let me be your dimples?
