Butterfly Effect

For my sister's birthday. Rest in Peace lovely Lee x

Butterfly Effect~~

You can't flutter by 

     and not affect everyone you've touched

   heart of gold wrapped 

    in thinly veiled wings of strength

we've gazed upon your flight

        right from the beginning

days of storms have grounded,

      slowed your onward flight

yet, so beautifully you've risen

          above the ashen earth

bound for skies of brilliance

      free from ambivalence

overcoming to wash away the pain

           with each new storm

what awaits is still a mystery 

         to all of those who believe

whispering tomorrows linger

           on a zephyr quietly awaiting

~you can't flutterby and not affect everyone you've touched~
