As the westerly blew over the grey cloudy sky,

I heard the raindrops playing chords very high,

The potpourri fragranced the room with musky aroma,

My parched soul drenched in overflowing Aloha!


There I saw her fluttering the wings,

Sitting cosily on the window string,

She cut a pretty picture in yellow and pink,

With hues of lavender on her spotty skin!


As the butterfly flapped on the window pane,

I saw her crying in enormous pain,

The body was weak, frail and tired,

But her spirits never retired!


She has travelled million miles across the shores,

Over the valleys and vast contours,

Her journey lasted for entire lifetime,

Today she lay still and sublime!


A question bothered me to my surprise

Aren't we all in a way butterfly?

The journey begins when we step out of cocoon,

To learn how to labor and toil till noon!
