Well, I am back! 'A Butterfly' is a poem which expresses feelings and emotions of a woman who is does not even have the freedom to think for herself!


A butterfly...

The blossoms chanted a beautiful melody
As the sun glittered the azure sky
The boughs of trees swung with glee
And, among the flowers danced a beautiful butterfly

Her glinting wings, lightened my heart
As she fluttered around the blooming blossoms
Her beautiful colors took my sorrows far apart
As she flapped her wings around lavenders and plums

Oh, Lord! I'll give away my life to live like a butterfly
Flickering round the flowers to taste the sweetness of liberty
All the time in the world, but life doesn't let you waste it to cry
I might not have a voice to sing or chant for joy, but I'll be free!
