My Blue Butterfly

Hey budding butterfly,

Can you hear me?

Tell me where your home is

And we can have tea!

Hello little butterfly,

So gently you fly

Can you teach me to do so,

And help me touch the sky?

Dear, dear butterfly,

You buzz with glee

What is it you suck from the flowers,

Can I have some for me?

Playing with my hair,

Is that you?

Do tell me butterfly,

Why are you so blue?

Excuse me, butterfly,

I heard you were a worm,

My friends too call me a bookworm

So tell me, how can I transform?

Oh dear butterfly,

No, no, no!

I have much more to ask you,

So please don’t go!

Oh my God! Butterfly,

Where are you now?

If you come to me, flutterfly,

I will promise you with tons of love.

I understand butterfly,

You too have a home.

But come to my window tomorrow,

And together we can roam.
