Daddy Saves Child's Butterfly

daddy saves child's butterfly

look baby, butterfly
high above in the tree
two of them on a branch
so cute, orange and black
daddy why they entwined
they look to be fighting

daddy save them please
help, one is on top
daddy do something
their wing are spanning
one's in trouble

daddy help them
I hear a cry
a plea for help
fluttering fast
one's still on top

climb the tree
hurry, now
before death
do they part
my hero

tears well
daddy
climbs tree
to save
baby's
