Butterfly Song

Butterflies don't sing, but what they lack in sound they make up for with colourful shimmering wings. They have such random movements when flying I think there must be a song in their heads that they are dancing to. Our lovely white butterflies are particularly lively in flight never seeming to land, what a song they must be dancing to.

It is with iridescent wings a butterfly sings A whimsical mime to a silent rhyme What may appear as random flight Is the butterfly's song danced in the warm sunlight.
