Butterfly Poem by Sarbani Sengupta

Butterfly



In the middle of the forest primeval,
There was a Menelaus blue morpho hovering overhead.
Assuming to ensnare my eyeball,
Rounding next to me, oh my Godhead.
Butterfly, Butterfly…..
Fluttering in the blue heavens,
Butterfly, butterfly, transpire into the luminosity
Oh, what an alluring vision.
The crack of dawn is twinkling like the raindrops
To the verge of tearful rosebud;
To the midget beloved eavesdrop…..
Perhaps, the blue morpho! Fairly ennobled
I wanna flit like a fairly butterfly,
And flatten it's divergent colours in the sky
Like a butterfly arise
Like a butterfly flapping his wings likewise
Eccentrically hither and thither.
Please, relinquish me;
Let me be free as one of those fairly beings.
