Soaring Ambitions :-)

A very "earthy" butterfly on a reconnaisance mission, away from its normal haunts amidst gardens and flowers. Like humans, they too look to new horizons and frontiers.

A wonderful capture on a trip to Munnar, by blogger friend Sandhya from Chennai. Posted by her , as part of the Wordless Wednesday series. 

But sometimes,  a thousand miles away, the words happen ....:-))

They taught us
in Butterfly school
to daintily flit
amidst the green
and the flowers,
imbibing
the nectars
and flavors of Life.

Some of us went
for higher studies,
winging our way
across walls and tiles,
braving difficult winds.

I have great designs,
(in life, that is) :-)
and as anyone
in power will tell you,
Life is pretty
tough,
drab,
grey,
and lonely
at the top.

I don't have
the garden colors
and the green
around me,
but what the heck,
the Sky's the Limit now !
