Butterfly

Butterfly butterfly flying high up in the sky
So delicate and graceful your colours catch my eye

You float you glide with friends either side
Maybe on day you'll see the seaside 

Out in the sun, the warm summer air
I look on in wonder "How did you get there"

With bright coloured wings
Like petals on flowers
I look and I gaze
I could do this for hours
