I sat underneath the shade of a tree
So many butterflies I could see
Like flowers they emerge in the spring
With beautiful colored wings.

I see butterflies as a priceless gift
Watching them gives my spirit a lift
Bringing such happiness my way
They never fail to make my day.

Spread your wings and fly up high
You have become a butterfly
Gathering nectar from flowers bright
From early morning until night.

The butterflies are not meant to stay
God created them that way
I thank Him for the joy they bring
And look for them again come spring.
