The Last of His Kind by ~Mandalore13:iconMandalore13:



Flying,
Flying,
Constantly flying.
The eternal flutter knows no true home.
From crawler to flight,
He lives out his life,
Free of whimsical care.
Bringing happiness,
And life,
wherever he may roam - even though he is alone.
Crying inside,
Voice too small to be heard.
He waits to die,
The last of the butterflies.
Choked with smoke and smog,
he rests upon a log,
the wings begin to wilt - though the world feels no guilt.
He hears natures call,
Releasing the season of spring and fall.
The world now goes without,
Unable to hear the shout,
For he was the last of his kind.

The corruption that this world has wreaked upon nature is relentless...my nature-like thought for the day.

Thats so sad, I mean the first part shows this happy and wonderful thing, but then 'the last butterfly' and the transisition into smog and dirty imagery really shows the contrast. So sad, the average man goes on his daily life without noticing how nature is suffering, all the wonderful things not only that WE are loosing them, but they are dieing, the living things are dieing and all we care about is that WE don't have them anymore, its a type of selfishness to care for nature for some people (whoops tangent) see thats how inspiring it is, it made me think very deeply =)

I...really liked this one a lot.

I...say that every time...XP

I guess this just shows how little many people pay attention to the world around them. One can go through life ignorantly not thinking of the consequences that their actions have upon the rest of the world. It goes to show how many beautiful things/creatures go being destroyed without a care. (though you already know all that, considering you wrote it...ha...I just like thinking through it all too)

Good job as always.
