Yellow butterfly

Pappy155

I watched a tiny smile curl, as she gazed out in a stare

Focusing her eyes on something floating in the air

She told me it was sent to her from all she loved who died

I looked for it to no avail, no matter how I tried

 

The graceful yellow butterfly is sent from those above

A way for them to tell you, you always will be loved

It means that they are with you, no matter where you go

Maybe no one loved me! I searched both high and low

 

I gave it up, stopped the hunt, went on with my life

Until the day my world stood still, I lost my loving wife

Then one day, alone in the yard, staring at the sky

She came to visit as she said, a yellow butterfly

    Amazing, a very similar thing happened to me after my mum passed away, all I felt was joy. Beautiful dear Pappy. 🌹

      Thank you Teddy! I’ve always loved the little “coincidences “ that happen
