I don’t know why the butterflies came.

Posted on July 21, 2014 by Meisaan Chan

I was walking on this country road one summer day

and suddenly ten thousand pieces of confetti

descended and danced around,

each one a little blessing

until the sky beat with diaphanous wings

until my heart fluttered in my chest,

broke free, and joined them.
