If I were a Butterfly
If I were a butterfly, I’d dance among
the daisies,
And sway with the branches of the
trees,
Through the meadows without any
worries silently as a whisper, I’d hover
under the clear, big blue,
My soft and delicate wings freely
fluttering their vibrant golden hues,
If I were a butterfly, that’s what I’d
do.
Across the water’s surface of the rivers,
I’d leave ripples of light behind as I glide
on through,
If tired, I would hitch a ride upon a
floating leaf and enjoy the view,
At Dawn on the hilltops, I’d drink
the morning dew and enjoy the fresh
air too,
If I were a butterfly, that’s what I’d
do.
In the Spring and Summer, I’d
sip sweet nectar from the flowers,
If too full to venture far, a snooze I
need ah, a rose petal to my rescue,
In a garden, children are playing
and chasing shadows in the Sun,
It’s best not to close my eyes lest
they catch me, as that won’t be fun.
If I were a butterfly, that’s what I’d
do.
