~ Sweet Fragrance ~ Oh butterfly, sweet butterfly Come rest your ceaseless flight, Alight your gossamer touch, I'd like to share your light. What do you tell us then If you live here, for a day. What are the secrets, you will share What would you have to say. Do you fret from where you came Or where it's leading to, Will you savor every moment, And claim the sun for you. You flit with restless vigor Carried on the gentle breeze, Do you alight on every flower To tickle and to tease. Then when the day is done, And your moments are all gone, How do you choose to pass away What do you rest upon. A life lived, is so short A moment here and then it's passed, If we too, enjoy the daisies Will that make the memories last. As we gather up sweet nectar, Is it ours to save, What fragrance sweet will linger, From the loving that we gave.
