Rainbow Wings

"Rainbow Wings"
(10/27/02 - 18 years old)

Floating free
With wings of a butterfly
Decorated boldly
By the rainbow up high

Softly continues
To float, but alone.
Rejected - not accepted
By the others who've flown

Different than birds
And others with flight
The butterfly, though safe,
Brings the rest of them fright.

Hated for difference,
But yet still the same.
Whoever made up
The rules of this "game"?

I hope in the future
The butterfly, so sweet
Could be accepted for its beauty
With its differences unseen.
