Unexpectedly high a butterfly climbs

Unexpectedly high a butterfly climbs
Through the tree
Through the wind
Quickly finding its way

I could not so easily avoid limbs and leaves
But the butterfly is used to
Her own speed
She calls to me

And even my eyes that fast
Do not go
She is gone

But I have followed
A step or two
