LIGHT AS THE BUTTERFLY
Taken from the anthology ‘Water’

The air all around us
So light just like a
butterfly
The gentleness, the
calmness, the tenderness
Softly touching the
leaves
The leaves dancing
and singing
A quiet song in the
breeze
The spring is here
Bringing much cheer
The winter is over
The waters are
getting warmer
The rushing of the
waterfall
From the mountains
tops
Icicles and snow has
melted
Bringing freshness,
cleanliness and a newness
The buds are
awakening from their winter hibernation
Wholesomeness to the once barren landscape
Green, lush and plush
The butterfly at the
ready to feed on the spring’s store
The luxurious, the
sumptuous
Flowers that await
their splendour
