I Saved The Life Of An Insect

I saved the life of an insect today,

It was a mystical green creature,

It's little legs were all coloured in gray,

A beautiful life in miniature.

I saw him struggling to get up,

As a 'big' drop of rain fell on him,

Its little wings flattered,

As the shock must be too painful for him.

It was stuck beside the 'big' window,

Beside the window, where I had my seat,

And when I saw him struggling,

I decided it was time for the two worlds to meet.

I looked at my class teacher,

And made sure no one could see,

For what I was doing was not something to do,

And I would be defined crazy socially.

I took that little creature,

Into the warmth of my hand,

It crawled on my fingers rather nervously,

And sat down beside my friendship band.

I waited for quite sometime,

And then the beauty came,

It unleashed it's heavenly wings widely,

And I thanked God I wasn't sane.

It started to crawl all over my hands,

Playing with me like a child,

Sometimes it flied and kissed me on my nose,

I wondered what was on it's mind.

But then it was the time to depart,

I understood as it quiet downed,

And thanked me in the most wonderful way,

Crawled up on my hands and then shoulders,

And then it took a flight into the little ray of the sun,

I think it must have whispered a thanks,

As it stayed there, and kept looking at me for a while,

It spread its wings and sparkled in colours,

A beauty the rest will never find,

Its wings reflected a little rainbow,

Where it had stayed on my hand,

And then it flied into heaven,

And I came back on the land.

I saved the life of an insect today,

And it thanked me for that.
