Like rubies and diamonds That sparkle and gleam Like multi-colored quits Without a stich or a seam Fluttering, flying Dancing in the breeze Flitting and floating Between the leaves on the trees Soundless but beautiful Meek and sweet Thousands of them dancing In a butterfly fleet Gently with grace From a sky grey and bleak They land on your face And tickle your cheek In the distance, a rumble A lightning flash and a roar Butterflies scattering Too scared to soar Rain drops so large, Wet and cold Those poor little butterflies Their wings snap and fold Butterflies broken Falling to the ground Dying and weeping As the thunder sounds Fallen butterflies So beautiful and meek Fallen from a sky Dark, grey and bleak
