"Imploring "
I did importune 'Thee'
To boon my life,
As a caterpillar lives
May not be grandeur
Through its appearance -
But, think out of its tomb
Comes out the butterfly
With colourful wings
Sooth our eyes,
Alas! You didn't assent me
A life of an insect!
Must be thinking a jest,
Aye, I want a flame of life
Before I take my eternal rest.
