That One Butterfly
Location
One small,
Teensy,
Little
Act
Can make a huge difference.
The Butterfly Effect -
The theory that,
So much as stepping on a butterfly,
Can change the world.
That one butterfly
Could've captured the attention of a little girl
And stopped her from running into the street
Full of oncoming traffic.
That one butterfly saved her life.
That one butterfly
Could've been the reason
Your cat wasn't kidnapped.
Because, your cat was too focused
On trying to catch and eat it, so it didn't wander
Out of your yard.
You could be that one butterfly.
Yes,
You.
Smile at someone who is frowning,
Sit with a lonely kid at lunch,
Befriend somebody who looks like they're having a rough day.
That one butterfly
Could be the reason
They didn't scream at their parents
The reason
They ate all of their dinner that night,
The reason
They didn't attempt suicide.
Please
Be
That
One
Butterfly.
