Original watercolor artwork "A man isn't truly free enough to fly" 2023 by Ala Ilescu Watercolor on 140 lb paper 11" x 15".Vertical position. Signed. This is the original painting from the art/ poetry book that I published in 2023 "My sad is sadder than yours" Here is the poem featured with this painting:
on a sunny day
a blue fluttering butterfly
decided to spend time with humans
to get to know them better
as she was dancing and flowing
in the air from house to house
she could hear different stories
good ones and bad ones
but in all of them
humans would love to be free
they wished they could fly
while they had been chained
to their made boundaries
so she understood
why humans didn't have wings
she understood
a human isn't truly free enough to fly
