Blushing Butterflies
Butterflies have the quietest wings
Defying the weight of their flutterings
Your red face has shown
What you did not want known
Your fight to keep them from escaping

This Gorgeous Butterfly
There once was a fellow named Bert
Who had always been considered a jerk
Till one day he passed by
With this gorgeous butterfly
One couldn't miss Bert's dirty big smirk

Boxing Bee
Float like a butterfly sting like a bee
Dancing and prancing, “Frazer can’t hit me”
Frazer’s punch was a killer
Smoking hot in Manila
Refutes the Rope a dope prophet Ali!!

Grab the Brass Ring
Woke up this morning ready to fly
Each day's an adventure for you and I
Grab the brass ring
Sweet songs to sing
Spread your wings like a pretty butterfly

Childhood
Those days when the hours fluttered by
Like the wings of a bright butterfly.
Suntanned skin and bare feet--
And the breeze was as sweet
As the fragrance of blueberry pie.

The Big Yellow Ball
There's a big yellow ball way up in the sky
It's making me nervous, sure don't know why
Could it be an omen
Or some kind of token
Why I'm flitting round like an overweight butterfly

Butterfly On An Easter Bunny
Butterfly on An Easter Bunny
Thought that this was kind of funny;
Butterfly being on an Easter Bunny,
In backyard out on green grass;
Me by hope my love would not pass,
Who was always sweet as honey.
Jim Horn
Someone mentioned butterfly
being on an Easter bunny so

Slow Hand
A kaleidoscope of butterflies
passed right before my dilated eyes,
so while the colors blurred by
grabbing at them I did try...
fast little buggers to my surprise!

a neighborhood dog would cry
while eating rhubarb pie
so we added honey
and this made him runny
till he morphed into a housefly.

B-1 Shape
Just had a complete physical today, I'm in B-1 shape
Most than can be expected, afterall I'm not twenty-eight
Though years have flown by
Still feel like a butterfly
But having trouble taking off, think I might be overated

Butterfly Wings
The marvelous beauty of butterfly wings
As varied as our fertile imagination can spring
Unique, one-of-a-kind
More beauty you won't find
Nature's masterpiece without any kibbutzim

Many a caterpillar try
Yet few become a butterfly
And those that soar
Feed even more
Who don't know why, but live to die

Butterfly Wings Flutter and Flutter
Butterfly Wings Flutter and Flutter
Butterfly has been in gutter,
But still will flutter and flutter;
Flowing,
While growing;
Sounds like wings did stutter.

Ann the Man
There once was a girl in a man.
Who one day came up with a plan.
She shed all his clothes.
And oh heaven knows.
She's not going back to be Stan.

A Beautiful Butterfly
How do I describe this lass of mine
She treats me like royalty, an honor divine
Do I deserve it I wonder
An elusion I'm under
This beautiful creature a treasure defined

Most than can be expected, after all I'm not twenty-eight
Though years have flown by
Still spry as a butterfly
But having trouble taking off, think I might be overweight

Escaping Art-
To entertain love drawing butterfly
Seeing it I'm asked- it can't fly, why?
It's not artistic Three-D
Dull eyes never enjoy free

Around Town With No Pants
Once was a lady from France
Who went around town with no pants
The gendarme didn't think
She should be showing her pink
So they covered up her pink with their hands

Colors On Butterfly Wing
Colors on Butterfly Wing
Colors had been flowing over butterfly's wing;
Much joy and happiness always does bring;
Love bursts forth,
South to North,
And in background you can hear birds sing.

A Strange Orange Ball
There's a strange orange ball way up in the sky
Really quite strange, is this the end for us guys
No, no, it can't be
Tween you and me
Haven't fed the cats or my pet butterfly

BUTTERFLY DREAMS
Pretty little wings on my body
Some do say they look gaudy
Flapping my wings like a bird in the sky
But I don't have the might to fly so high
Oops! The day is done and I've just died
