Butterfly (for AGB)

Butterfly, butterfly, drift on the breeze;
Feel the sunshine so warm on your face.
Keep to the light, and away from the dark;
Live with meaning, and purpose, and grace.

Ladybug, ladybug, keep your heart pure;
Let all decadence pass by the way.
Hold fast to traditions you once held so dear,
And watch all the words that you say.

Firefly, firefly, let your light shine
Til the darkness gives way to the day.
Stand firm in will, choose friends with great care,
For in weakness they’ll lead you astray.

Honeybee, honeybee, don’t stray from your hive;
Beware of the nectar which lures.
For it will poison both body and soul
And its enslavement can never be cured.

Dragonfly, dragonfly, beware of the storms
And the people that mean you all harms.
Remember the good, the honest, and true,
And the care of these comforting arms.

Hummingbird, hummingbird, flutter about;
Fly under the care of the sun.
Cherish the moments; live life to the full,
For joy awaits when you’re done.

Damselfly, damselfly, stand bold for the truth;
Don’t care what strangers may say.
Be strong in spirit, don’t follow the crowd
For your crown awaits on that day.

Butterfly, butterfly, remember thy Lord
And the great love He has for thee.
Spread your wings and head for the skies;
He’ll be guiding you as you fly free.
