Glimpse the beauty of a butterfly's wings, <br />As if inspired by heavenly angelic paintings, <br />Soft as delicate silk, they are thus displayed, <br />Dusted with subtle colours, which can only fade <br />Once life on this earth is at a sombre end. <br />One thing in this great world we cannot mend, <br />When heaven reclaims what it owned, from the start, <br />These wings designed by God. His perfect art. <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/his-perfect-art/
