I watched a tiny butterfly
Go swooping thru the air
Blue and gold and yellow
His colors were so fair

And as he sailed
Up in the sky
I rose upon tip toes
And to my surprise
Before my eyes
He landed on my nose!

My eyes they crossed
 That I might see
This tiny little thing
But in a breath and heartbeat
The butterfly took wing.
