Butterfly 3 - The Bold Butterfly & The Bright Sunflower

Rating: 5.0


A Romantic Dialogue

The Butterfly:
"O Bright Sunflower! How handsome you are!
Can I come and sit on your yellow petals?
Your sparkling luminosity makes me bounce with happiness,
Your golden hue makes me fly in circles with joyfulness,
Your symmetrical centre filled with seeds is, verily, blessedness! "

The Sun Flower:
"O Beautiful Butterfly! You are my muse!
No! Not the dazzling Sun who dazzles from a distant,
But You! My pretty Butterfly!
You are flitting around me all the time,
Playing and parading your shining wings,
Swinging and springing like a belly dancer!
Come! Let us dance and waltz around!
Or would you prefer to dance the Tango?
There is not much time for us to waste,
The sun will set by evening! Make haste!
You are here only for a day! Not more!
We are a perfect match,
Attired in glowing yellow shades,
Before the Sun drops his curtain,
Embrace me with your golden wings.! "

Lovely and sweet dialoge of butterfly and the sunflower before the sun goes down. Beautiful work. Admire your explicit flow of words in a story sweet woven. Admirations ma'am

Superb personification. We have heard of kissa Tota-Maina, conversations beween Shama-Parwana, Chand-Chakor, Gul-o-Bulbul and the like in our folklore. This dialogue between a bubbly Butterfly and the Sunflower reflects their longing for each other but mindful of its ephemeral life, it solicits the pleasure of her company. Well done Geeta ji. It goes to MyPoemList.
