Little Fly

Little Fly

A Poem by Ashadan
"

There are people who wanted to be on top all the time, but sometimes it good to be contented on what you have and what you are

"
                                     

Little fly,
Staring at the tree.
Trying to reach, what he see.

Little fly,
Looking at the sky.
He spreads his wings, trying to fly.

Little fly,
Went on the place nearby.
Hoping to be kingfishers as they fly.

Little fly,
Stop wishing stronger than a bee.
Even like those birds you see.

Little fly,
Just look and observe thee.
Stop pushing yourself, higher than a tree.

Little fly,
Don't try to deny.
Just be true to yourself, stop telling a lie

Without the little fly the whole chain would collapse, and there would be nothing.

I agree with Peggy-Lou, this does seem like it would go great in a children's book. I love the symbolism you used in Little Fly, it adds just a subtle artistic touch to this nicely written, simple poem. :)

The importance of being authentic, playfully illustrated - I like it :)

Hopefully I can do that.I'm on the process of improving the skill
Sometimes, the use of simple and unpretentious words prove to be more effective than the use highfalutin words and this piece is a classic example. The lesson behind the poem is conveyed properly and poetically.
