Analysis of Butterfly



oh butterfly butterfly how pretty are u
up in the sky way up high
flapping your wings and soring through the clouds
just like u always do
i always wonder what it would be
like just to fly through the sky way up high not woring about life from the sky
oh i always wished i could be you
you remind me of my mom
flapping through the wings soaring way high
