Life Is Like a Butterfly

Life is like a butterfly Showing beauty galore Some have see through wings To let you see more. Like the butterfly you flutter From one thing to the  next But not gathering sweet nectar Not always doing your best It's hard always to be happy Showing  a smile upon your face Life isn't always  joyful The pain you cant erase But the butterfly shows beauty Proud to be alive for sure We can learn from these insects To except and not ask for more So spread your wings and fly Drink in the beauty of life Enjoy each and every moment, Shrug off the trouble and strife Cos tomorrow is another  day For seeking out whats right To smile, laugh shout with joy From daybreak through 'til night Then off to bed you go Feeling oh so tired and  snappy   Too tired to say goodnight Anxious, but happy.

It's impossible to always be happy, but what can we do but keep fluttering? I am surprised no one has commented on this poem. It seems like you are your own best counsel, but I'm sure you knew that already. Very nice message in this poem.
