the torn and tattered
butterfly
lands atop our
zinnias
we started when
this butterfly
was way down south.
What a resourceful creature
who freely flies between ideal climates,
gives birth never to know
their offspring.
This butterfly lived I hope
a blessed life
coming north to find
the zinnias
we
planted.

I have images of butterflies all over my house. They are such a metaphor for transformation into beauty.
