Solitary Butterfly

This poem I wrote in grade 9 english class. Our teacher told us to write a poem comparing ourselves to an animal. I chose a butterfly.

This poem is dedicated to all those people out there that feel the same way I do sometimes.




I feel like a solitary butterfly,
with no one around.
Floating lonely,
around the silent meadow.
Finally,
another butterfly appears.
Now it`s not so lonely,
in the quiet meadow,
as the butterflies fly around,
happily.
