Fleeting beauty

I gaze upon you longingly
A picture or memory passing
Clasped under glass dome
Of my mind

When did I fall prey
To such weakness?
Surely absence is not
The only cure?

How could I grow accustomed
Such beauty before me
When suddenly takes flight
Without saying goodbye?

Such love is immortal
Each passing season
Revived new colours
Never fade in time
Papilio ulysses joesa Ulysses Swallowtail
