I Want To B a Butterfly

You ever wonder how it would be to be a butterfly? 
They fly around and land on things that are beautiful. 
They stretch their wings out, and their colors are even more brilliant! 
They are
delicate and small, and dont ever cause pain or trouble.
Their wings are the colors of heaven. 
They just glide through life on gentle breezes. 
They just fly free higher and higher, until they disappear. 
What a beautiful creation they are. 
Guess we could learn from all of the Lord's smallest creations. 
It can teach us, that even if we are small, and delicate, meek and silent. 
Even though we may feel we haven't made the world beautiful we have. 
The Lord uses all his masterpieces, 
and we all have a special place in his miraculous eyes!

Nice imaginative write. I'm thankful to be a human being. Just a helpful suggestion: Try not to start too many lines with the same word. You have too many lines in this poem beginning with "they". Use as big a variety of words as you can when you write. Your poem looks a lot better with more descriptiveness when you vary the words.
