  • THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE'S EYES.....

     

    butterfly

     

    Yesterday a butterfly
    Came floating gently through the sky.
    He soared up through the atmosphere
    Then drifted close enough to hear.

    I said, I'd love to fly with you
    And sail around the way you do.
    It looks like it would be such fun
    To fly up toward the summer sun.

    But I have not your graceful charm.
    I haven't wings, just these two arms.
    I've been designed to walk around.
    My human feet must touch the ground.

    Then magically he spoke to me
    and told me what his wish would be.

    He said, What I'd love most to do
    Is walk upon God's Earth with you,
    To squish it's mud between my toes
    Or touch my finger to my nose.

    I'd love just once to walk around
    With human feet to touch the ground,
    But I have not two legs that swing,
    I haven't arms, just these two wings.

    And so we went our separate ways
    In wonder and surprise.
    For we'd both seen God's precious gifts
    Through someone else's eyes.
