My Fondest Memory
My fondest memory was so surreal
It has changed my life downright
and I really feel beatific to reveal
the secret behind my delight
It happened on a bright sunny day
I saw a tiny yellow egg amidst
the leaves,which was its hideaway
It was so cute and I could not resist
I kept it inside the plastic container
The next day the small caterpillar
hatched and it was my entertainer
and it had become my tension killer
I raised it by feeding curry leaves,
drenching and cleansing the box
and many a time I used to give
hugs and I never wanted to unbox
Days went by and one day that miracle
happened, like a blessing in disguise
There was a butterfly inside the receptacle
and it was really a grand surprise
I shouted loud, jumped like a baby
I was at the height of bliss,when
it walked on my hand,I became crazy
when it kissed on my cheek and chin
I forgot the world and got transported
into a new place,when it landed on my hand
and the feelings & warmth will not be forgotten
and I would cherish the moment till my end
since then I started raising butterflies indoor
So far I have raised 75 butterflies and,more
