Butterflies
By Lira Kale Pajarillo

How nice is it to be a
butterfly
One that frolics across the
gardens
Of succulent flowers, all
vibrant
One that is admired for the
beauty
of being a nature’s gift to
man
Tell me, one pretty
butterfly!
Have time for me soon.
Tell me next to your
admirers
About how it is to be
Adored and paid homage
Inside a glistening crystal
glass frame.
