Dolly and Molly Became Friends

\\      //
          Dolly was sitting    under a tree alone
           Nobody to play      with the young one.
                     Finds she      suddenly:
              a red admiral      above her head.
         Her eyes blushed   with happiness 
          finding this colour ful companion.
        With eminent hope  and excitement  

she jumps on the grass to touch the fluttering one..
But, it flew a little away from her.She runs forward 
but it flies backward,hiding under a leaf often.This 
continued for a while.The little one understood that 
the butterfly is playing hide & seek game with her.
She felt happy for that and at the same time little 
sad, because she still wasn't able to touch it.
After some time she slumps down tired,Sits 
crossed leg on the lawn.The red admiral flew 
toward her and sat on her lap.With high enthusiasm 
she carefully touched those soft wings and named 
her Molly. From then on.. grew their friendship 
They played everyday in jolly.

I like the imagery Deepa, a young innocent child at play who found a friend in nature. Made me think of my kids when they were little. Enjoy your weekend. Tom
