On This Summer's Day

The falling of scales
Off a fluttery pair of butterfly wings

The clouds that glide
Across wisdomed blue 

The purple scent of lilac
Carried gently by the air 

The whisper of trees
When the wind blows

The secret dance
Between the bird and the flower

The warm, butter sun
As warm as it is cold when it's gone

The moon, ever so radiant,
Lighting up the palm of my hand

And I, still the same,
Still changing.
