Upma, your flag sounds so beautiful, and your description is magical, an inspiring 7 , I am going to Google it, and thanks for visiting my poem, surrender, I hesitated posting such a sensual write but seems a butterfly with broken wings can still feel lust or was that love? And visiting my poem, I had to get low ...and visiting, the butterfly and dragon. ..
