Line: A butterfly I chanced to spy

The Butterfly Triolet

A butterfly I chanced to spy
Who soared with ease through gentle breeze
And with a sigh watched her go by
A butterfly I chanced to spy
As she flew high across the sky
Her expertise this sight did please
A butterfly I chanced to spy
Who soared with ease through gentle breeze.
