Tiptoeing in quiet
Stage of shining leaflets
The butterfly dance
~~~
Chase flying magic
Nothingness when in touch
Beautiful only when free
Watch the butterflies, other creatures in their own habitat. Not by caging them in your own. There is a beauty in the chase, in the search of these lovely beings. But once in your reach, they will be a mystery no more, they will be your fascination no more. So let them be and enjoy the hunt, but please do not intend to get these back home with you. Let them live, for their beauty is only as long as they are free and happy!
This Haiku is written for the April A2Z Heights at Haiku Heights. The prompt for the day is 'BUTTERFLY'.
what wise words about freedom! and to be frank, I always have to read your haiku more than twice to fathom the meaning, unless you briefly explain them below.
