"In The Midddle Of Night Butterflies Dance To The Moon's Song" Poetry Contest
Sponsor: Anoucheka Gangabissoon
FIRST PLACE
A forlorn maiden wakes up in the middle of the night, Heart aches with longing… For the young man who had to leave her For an unknown destination, Glorious midnight Moon shines at the centre of the sky, Alone and magnificent! Singing to the glittering stars, A song of solitude, of passion, of heartbreaking emotion ! The melodia floats in ethereal harmony on the wings of butterflies! They dance to the tune of that song, A multitude of them encompassing the horizon, Colourful bodies emanating euphoria- Radiating rainbow colours all around! Ecstatic, transformed into gorgeous creatures... Their joy, exultation sublime, creates Poignant movements so surreal, Moon invites them to join that refrain, And wipe away the melancholy from the maiden’s Tearful eyes! What a magical extravaganza created ! Butterflies sprinkled with shimmering stardust, Moon savouring their spirited sprightliness… A damsel awestruck with the blessing of a miraculous sight! A few moments of rejuvenation for her… She dreams of being with her lover!
