Butterflies Above The Merry

Butterflies Above The Merry

A Poem by Earl Schumacker
"

A good morning event

"

Butterflies Above the Merry



Butterflies bend the wind to color


They dip in circular momentum calm


Lifting the air enchanted through the pines


Past lakes at speeds monitored by time


And when the blue jay turns its head


More in a hurried pitch than surprise


In accordance with the laws of sunrise


Which are never wrong but on their side


Wise buttercups remain yellow to their roots


Cups of joy stationed in tranquility


Beautiful anchored observers to the truth who judge


All creatures passing by in flight


Wishing they could be on the wing


As tiny birds sing out the cause of merry


Butterflies go deeper in their souls


Lovely at first light, invisible to the touch
