The Wings of a Page

A butterfly perches on a delicate petal
Hidden among the surrounding flowers
But strangely striking,
Forcing me to take a second glance;
Its vibrant colors like a rainbow
Scattered across its body.
And as he flaps his tissue wings
Preparing for flight,
The butterfly disappears
A beautiful creation fading into the distance.
A single book waits on a dusty shelf
Its cover worn and pages torn
Waiting to be picked among the rest
A masterpiece to be discovered.
The little boy walks by catching a glimpse
And is tempted to read
This beautiful work of art
But continues walking
Forgetting in a single moment.
Both a masterpiece to unfold,
A mysterious creation
Beckoning us to uncover.
What started as a simple caterpillar,
A scratch of words on a napkin,
Has evolved;
Forming a unique entity
With beauty to behold.
If only we were to stop and look
We could truly see
The wings of a page;
A story flying by.
