Ohoo, Little Butterfly

Ohoo, little butterfly........ (Poem for children) Ohoo little butterfly, what a beautiful sight of you Flying so high and circling around the trees Your wings are so beautiful with sparkling colours My eyes are dazzling when I look at you When you are a caterpillar, curled up on a leaf When you begin to fly then you are a beautiful butterfly When the spring comes you make everyone happy but during the winter you hide and make us sad When you are dancing through the sky feeling those stars are so close to our eyes You cannot make any sound but you see the world clearly So many stories are made for you and our children are so crazy on you Hope they will not catch you and keep you with them and allow you to live freely in this world forever.

This is a cute poem, Ravi. Butterflies are lovely creatures and many children are attracted by them. As you say, we hope that they'll admire them without catching or hurting them! // paul

What a charming poem! Both children and adults will love it. I like what you wrote about letting the butterfly fly free and don't catch it. The same could be said about flowers. Don't pick them, let them dance and blow in the breeze. If you pick them they will die. Some say that butterflies are flying flowers.
