Butterflies

by ddavidd   Feb 16, 2023


Right there
garden unfurls itself
in the wings of butterflies.

When the things are symmetrical so they bloom,
so they fly.

Like two question marks
facing one another to draw a heart,
two kissers mirroring,
two commensurable flapping wings
pinned in a fluttering kiss!

Parallels reaching out
in the thorax of a butterfly:

an union, a joint,
a man and his image,
a man,
an apple
completed within
its halves,

a
butterfly!
