What I can see of its wings
Stretching out around me
Invisibly but I can feel them
Opening and closing while it sips
A bit of moisture from the grass
Black on the top side with blue
Iridescent spots along the edge
Bright copper on the other side
I can almost hear it breathing
Calmly lifting them up and down
Only a few moments to spare me
Before it rises and flutters off
Other memories to scatter
Other eyes to astound
