Butterflies, Butterflies

Butterflies, butterflies
fly to me
Butterflies, bettterflies
I have many flowers for thee

I smile at your beauty
when you flutter about 
Though I'm told you smell
with your feet?
Hey, what's that all about?

My garden is so happy 
Your visits in the Springtime are the very best
Why even my Ladybugs love you 
(They sure put my Aphids to the test)

Your wings are an artful design of colors
though frail at the lightest touch
and I wish your life span was longer
because I just enjoy you all so much

I don't have a favorite species
One of each would surely do 
So the next time your in the area
please remember my garden
It will be full of flowering nectar that's just waiting all for you
