I am a butterfly,
Colourful and small,
I may have a silly dream,
I may not be prettiest of all.
But I don't want to flutter around,
I want to soar the sky,
My friends all make fun of me,
They say things with fie!
My dreams, my thoughts,
My folks don't agree,
I still fly high in the vast sky,
So they too can understand and see.
One day I flew for hours and hours,
Up high with the clouds so white
I saw green meadows and grazers below,
Oh my! What a spectacular sight!
On that day something changed,
My friends listened to my tales with belief,
They too now fly high with me,
And have now made me their chief!
