Challenge
butterflies
Butterflies. Symbols of change, endurance, hope, life, and rebirth. Write a poem, directed to a friend(real or imaginary), about butterflies, linking to their significance--you can choose to make up your own if you like. I do want to see what you guys have for me. Do tag me, I want to see your entries :)
On Wings of Metal
You gave me wings of metal
I do my best to fly
Struggle as I will
Too heavy but I try.
You gave me wings of metal
They weigh and pull me down
In a vast sea of betrayal
On the bottom here I drown.
You spread your colored wings
They light up your whole world
As I sit in silver darkness
Forever I am torn.
You take off in the morning
The sun warm in the sky
As I sit here on cold ground
A metal butterfly.
