Take Wing Amidst The Butterflies: a sonnet

POM prompt #27: Be a Butterfly

Oh to take wing amidst the butterflies
Lush in summer lilacs and zinnias
Beautifully themselves and always wise
Whole in mother’s gardens, I always was

Replenishing the ecosystem’s needs
Benevolent but lives are all too brief
Reminding me…
