Motionless Memories

You landed upon my hand
I gazed at your beauty
So delicate your wonder
The colors of your wings
Opalescent dreamscapes
Shimmering in the sun
Nervously fluttering
~
I remained still…motionless
Holding my breath
Dreaming of happiness
In stained glass whispers
Longing for you to stay
But you didn’t…flying off
Living only in my memory
