how does one love a butterfly?
can one cage it?
no
a butterfly's beauty is most appreciated
when its wings flutter in the expanse of the open sky allowing it to soar to freedom and the life it was created to live.
where does that leave one who loves this intricate creature of beauty?
open handed
releasing
watching
somewhat sad, somewhat lonely, but altogether knowing that letting go, difficult as it may be,
is to love.
