Every Butterfly Gets Her Wings Poem by Raymond Valadez

when i grow up i want to be a hummingbird
that way every butterfly may get her wings
let me quaff from the sweetest flowers
and when she strokes her wings let the world feel her power

both perpetually in perfect harmony
sharing the same vulnerability
confronting the same reality

let my vigor bring the sun forth
and may she accompany all eternal souls
may we forever dance in the wind
i the hummingbird and her the butterfly that got her wings
