Time rides
but on wings of butterflies.
Hardly noticeable
as they flit by…
From flower to flower.
Underscoring the fragrant,
outlining the beautiful.
*Yarrows to daylilies.
Lavender to pansies.
Goldenrods to marigolds.*
Supposedly impartial yet,
seemingly bestowing
just a little more
upon those most pleasing.
And the unchosen only watch
with bitter, hungry eyes
that go unnoticed, unslaked
and
unvisited.
