LJIdol / LPF: Week 12: Write Off

[codenamewanderlust]

You fly, Butterfly 

Soar now on the wind

 

Never give up, Buttercup

Because you know
You’ll always arrive in style

 

It's okay to sit still, sweet Daffodil 

To take a moment of silence

Just don’t let the fears buzz in your ears

When your own inner power overwhelms you

 

Go back to the page
Maybe, stop hovering in doorways

Hoping the faeries will mistake you

(For one of their own)

 

Get high, Honey-bee

Take flight and let the currents guide you

Alight on the air with nary a care

Because you know exactly who you are

 

And if the most that can ever be said

Is that you sprouted wings and fled

Then let it be said! 

Don’t let the stories they tell of you define you

 

Fly now, little Bird

And let not your worries deprive you

This is a life lesson for everyone, and I agree about the nursery-rhyme feel. Learning this at a young age and really understanding it is something that a lot of children would benefit from. :)
