Can I kiss a gorgeous butterfly? flits gracefully from flower to flower, Sipping the nectar heavenly sweet, Smelling the fragrance from the bower. Can I catch a glorious rainbow ? It looks so stunning spanning the sky, Love how it reveals all the colours, Even so far away, and so high! Can I not go to school every day? But frolic with my baby brother, I can teach him how to read and write, On the swing, humming a song together. Hold a Rose from my grandma's garden? Soft and pretty, pure and dazzling red, It stays close to my beating heart, Even when I fall asleep in my bed.

The lovely longings of a child are given sweet utterance. A child usually doesn't like to go to school, instead play with his siblings and roam around enjoying flowers and butterflies. Well done Mala. All the best in the contest.
