BUTTERFLIES

There are some people
whom we wish were butterflies -
but not for the old reason -
that they evolve from being
a crawling caterpillar to
becoming a beautiful butterfly.
Nice. But some folks
we simply wish they did
their work - whether moths
or monarchs - and do it well -
in silence - and in beauty -
and then they just move on.
