Two bold butterflies flutter by
Like lovers, reaching up to kiss the sky
Down swoops a radiant raven
Beak open and ready for the ****
Yet as it speeds down
It falters and glides past
Today it spares the lovers
While it carries on it's merry way looking for another meal
They were ignorant to the danger,
Consumed by eachothers love and blind to the world
The raven was like a warning of an unavoidable conflict
Possible to stall, inevitable in the end
But not today,
Today is for the butterflies
I wrote this after watching two butterflies avoid getting eaten by a bird at the park today while cloud gazing.
