BUTTERFLY

Contributed by mohan on Friday, 14th September 2007 @ 11:49:55 PM in AEST
Topic: NaturePoetry

How lovely and charming, O you butterfly!
Active and carefree you look, as you pass by,
Over the garden there, you hop and hop merrily,
Flapping your colourful and scaly wings briskly.

Nature’s very special creation, I believe, you are,
Creator put all his skill; therefore, what you are.
Patterns of wings numerous, you look glamorous,
Clad in shades vibrant, you are strikingly gorgeous.

A delightful sight to watch you dance in the breeze,
How I wish this graceful action for a moment to freeze!
And you embrace flowers attractive very amorously,
In loving caress you kiss them; sipping nectar swiftly.

In exchange you make the flowering plant conceive,
A special relation exists in between you, I perceive.
Cold, you bask in the hot sun; hot, you migrate wisely;
You camouflage from the dreadful predators cleverly.

A child there cries unable to catch you; for a while,
Why don’t you rest on his palm and make him smile?
And be gracious to teach me the skill to fly with you,
Leaving the mundane world happily I too will join you.

* This poem is dedicated to my grandson Anish, who is fond of butterflies!

Beautifully written. Thanks for sharing.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
