Butterfly Poem by Kishor Kumar Mishra

Behold! fluttering the tiny wings
Around the bushes and shrubs,
The winged creature roaming merrily,
Don't follow my child, catch not.

So short a life span it has,
Still happiness to all it brings,
Never expects anything in return,
See it fly, disturb not.

At its sight I feel elated,
All my sorrow and sufferings vanished,
Did He send it near my dwelings?
Perfectly read my mind and heart?

As the Almighty expressed his desire,
Mother Nature has set her empire,
Made this earth too beautiful to envy,
Which the settlers of Paradise yet to get.

For creating such an earthly wonder,
Gratitude I express to Nature Mother,
Offer my prayer to the Creator,
Oh God! give happiness to all for ever.
