Sway

Just one more look,

one more going over

the petals and gazing

through the limbs,

waiting, still, hoping

a butterfly will land,

one more moment

with the sun against

my skin, one more

listen to the wind

mingling with bird-

chatter, just a little 

longer to sway 

in calming rhythm

with the trees, 

a little more time

just to be….
