The Butterfly

As the butterflies wings, glide through the sky
So peaceful and elegantly

The colours on it wings and it hypnotic rhythm
its beauty for all to see

Such a delicate creature, from all over the world
is loved and treasured by all

They are so therapeutic, and lovely to watch

Its surprising with them being so small

When I get old, and I have lived a good life
and my time has come to die

I would like to come back as a spirit
and enjoy the rest of my life

As a beautiful Butterfly x
