The Butterfly

There is a Universe outside our chaos
Outside the hustle and hurry,
Outside the work and worry.
Alongside the freeways
We travel so fiercely,
A small black butterfly
Floats from flower to flower,
Simply enjoying the nectar.
Never once wondering
If there will be enough.
Just once in awhile,
Stop and be the butterfly.
Drink deeply of today’s nectar,
And embrace the joy
Of simply being.
