Parton's Theory of Love Explained

It has been proven I think,
yes I believe it's almost a fact,
scientifically verified,
not by all experts but quite a few.

Yes, 'Love is like A Butterfly.'
Dolly Parton has said so
and what better proof do we need?

The best butterfly nets
are made of holes.
The very best cost more - naturally,

these nets have even larger holes
and are especially made for
people to get caught in

thus allowing
veracious love-sick butterfly's
time to nibble at us
all the live long night and day.
