A butterfly
By Afanasyi Fet
You're right. With the features airy
I'm nice in view.
All velvet with its living flattery -
Two wings, as truth.
Don't ask: where from, where to
I fly indeed?
I sat on flower easy, too -
I breathe.
How long, without work and aim
I'd breathe?
Just now I'll flash wings, stretch -
And flee.
