A beautiful poem to show the strength we have within
I am beautiful.
On the surface, so tough.
On the inside, soft as velvet.
See my soul fly, with the wings of a butterfly.
See them flutter.
See them float.
See the display of colour.
In my heart
I am fleet
I can float
I can touch, soft and tender, on fragile petals.
In the world
I am hard
Tough as leather
Thick as tree trunks.
What I touch breaks
My steps destroy
My feeding needs, rapacious
Yet, I nurture my young
Wish for their future
for a lightness, love, safety
The freedom to fly,
bright as a butterfly. (99 words, 6 minutes)
