Analysis of About a life of a butterfly
Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)
Sometimes love is like a butterfly
We love how beautiful the insect is
They all are different beautiful colors
we love to just watch them fly around
But then life turns around on us
we start to get more greedy
we then decide that this butterfly
starts to have broken wings
But if we don't clip their wings
then we don't destroy the beauty
that the butterfly has to offer nature
but at the same token we need to be kind
So the love of the people we have
may they represent the butterfly
for it flies around so innocent
just like it would if the wings were clipped
