Sunshine and Freedom



The Literature Network has a translation of Hans C. Andersen's, The Butterfly. http://www.online-literature.com/hanschristianandersen/3895

Our thanks to the reader who has provided us with this information and this comment:

"Lovely sentiment and 'The Butterfly' is a bit of a grim (though certainly not Grimm) one from old H.C.A. Typical of him, bitter-sweet, but the elegance of his writing survives even in a good Translation." ~ L.Miller

Thought-provoking and moving. Please pass your comments on to us at lwalker@mountaincable.net

"Just living is not enough said the butterfly. One must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."
