Butterfly

Picture Credit: Pexels

A pair of little wings, flapping
Fluttered softly in the breeze.
Gently floating down the streets,
Stopped at windows, peeking in.
Greeting a flower here, visiting
A bud there, coaxing it to bloom.
Spread open its petals, to the sun,
Then landing lightly on the summit,
Dusting pollen grains off its feet.
Spreading colours, it drifts off.
Perhaps, in search of a new friend.

  1. Colorful and ethereal like a butterfly.The ending line gives me a kind of longing.I wish I could give the butterfly a company or be born as a butterfly in some other world maybe 🥺🦋

  2. Beautiful Shruba! 😁❤️ Love the imagery and the journey our butterfly takes! 😁Of course I’m a sucker for butterflies as they’ve been symbolic of change in my life recent years. Keep it up! 👍👍
