I blow in the wind,
And feel your gift of rain.
I ruffle my petals
On this silent subway train.
But my soul cries out:
I can't just sit forever!
I long to be near you,
Flying high together.
And when I am quiet
I feel you near me,
You give me wings
And eyes so I can see!
I float into the sky and soar,
For I'm a tethered butterfly no more!!
