My Magic Butterfly

I was so sad I was about to cry When she appeared in the corner of my eye Being carried gracefully by the wind I believe she wanted to be my friend She had rainbow wings and big brown eyes Like silver dollars floating in the sky There was a reason that I was so sad I’d lost the most beautiful thing I had It was more precious than anything For I’d lost my diamond ring I had my ring since I was four But now at 5 I have my ring no more Dad and I backtracked my steps nice and slow Searching for my ring both high and low When the butterfly came floating down Landing on my ring lying on the ground I ran and got my ring up off the ground Right here on my finger it can be found I thanked Mrs. Butterfly with a smile and a tear Waving goodbye as she disappeared Into a rainbow that crossed the sky My magic ring finding rainbow butterfly Written by my daughter Michaela and I
