friday - folk fest 2012 poem #3

today
a small butterfly landed on my index finger and
stayed for a while opening and closing its wings and
the kid next to me was creating rainbows and
flowers on her pad of paper and
the sun chased away the clouds and the rain and
Emmanuel Jal - a former Sudanese child soldier sang about peace
as
a thousand people stood and raised their arms and became one butterfly
creating a breeze with the beat of its wings
