On passing, the butterfly flutters goodbye.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

On passing, the butterfly flutters goodbye.
When a moment enjoyed,
transcends from the now
into a memory stored.
       Replayed.
        Re-lived.
        How sad,
 it's not the moment,
      any longer.
On passing, the butterfly
     flutters goodbye.
