Yellow Butterfly Poem by Angela Wybrow

You flit and you flutter;
You’re yellow, like butter.
You zigzag around,
Without any sound.

You dance through the day,
Beneath the sun’s rays.
You’re a beautiful sight,
With your wings shining bright.

Through the air, you do race,
With such skill and grace.
Your ballet-like dance
Leaves admirers entranced.

You fly at great heights;
Soaring high like a kite.
You dip and you dive;
You’re so full of life.

You’ve such energy;
You’re wild and free.
You’re precious and rare;
Such beauty, you bear.

Upon the bright petals,
You briefly do settle.
On nectar, you dine:
Like we do on wine.

Despite being small,
You’re dressed for a ball.
With your colour so bold,
You look like pure gold.

I admire your style;
You make me smile.
You dance on your way,
Having brightened my day.
