On one bright and sunny day
I was comfortable and cozy
On my favorite reclining chair
As I observed a cute butterfly
Meandering from flower to flower
It brushed aside my shoulder, and
Held on to the wall to go to sleep.
An instant thought occurred
The two have queer contrast
Love too is like the butterfly
So beautiful and heartwarming
Yet spirited and spontaneous
Though it pleases where it goes
It will go only where it pleases.
