To Be a Butterfly

Gazing up at silent skies Watching graceful butterflies Dancing, prancing so care free I close my eyes and wish to be Above the land and wild blue sea And when I awake from this sweet dream I sigh I smile Peacefully Gazing up at hazy skies Delightful little butterflies They seam to be watching me As one gently rests upon my knee To my surprise, and on this day They take my hand, I fly away I fly I smile I've come to stay
