Like a Butterfly
I should spread out my wings
For the wind to carry me away
To a far plush paradise
A safe haven for my dreams
A place showered by cool rains
Which means spring and not storm
A place bathed by the warm sun
Which means summer and no sweat
A place where the wild flowers
Bloom in a colorful display
A place where the mountains echo
The secret song in my heart
A place where the soft lush grass
Carpets the paths under my feet
A place where the gorgeous rainbow
Forms a halo over my head
Carefree I should be flying
Artistically I should be dancing
As I savor the cool fresh air
Scented with natures fragrance
See the energy beneath my wings
Observe the grace in my movements
Understand the determination within
And let me out of this cocoon.
