— Butterflies flutter through poppies,
beautiful bodies standing out
red and orange in the sun.

How I long to flitter my wings among them,
showing off my radiant colors,
for all the poppies to see.

And yet, I am only a common person.
just one more in the field of poppies,
nothing so rare.

Standing in awe.
