Hold a butterfly in your hand
carefully wrap your fingers round
and cup the delicate wings inside
for if you touch they cannot fly.
He made these insects small and neat
upon this earth with us to eat
to share the land the things we have
God made us all we should be glad.
To see each day watch time go by
the beautiful things, the birds that fly
they are all loved you know
our earth is just a giant show.
But altogether wrapped up in one
is this earth where we belong
so make it good enjoy your life
and make this earth so very nice.
