Wings of joy

It starts as a small flutter in a dark corner
A delicate whisper across skies of copper
Slowly emerging from its small hideout
Disturbing the cloak of silence thats worn out

Afraid at first, unsure and uncertain
Looking around with apprehension
Then slowly it starts spreading its wings
Spreading a glorious warm feeling

The feeling unfolds in a burst of colour and joy
Fluttering like a magnificent butterfly
Suffusing everything with colour and warmth
The wings of joy unfolding in her heart
