Paper Butterflies
From delicate strings
hang little dreams,
dancing inside my room.
Wings with words
calling me to dream.
Weaving through,
reverie’s seams.
Each shadow,
brings flight to life.
Passing memories down below,
offering miles of peace tonight.
Such blessings
from each of these beloved
Paper Butterflies.
