I bought a night time butterfly
To shine upon the elves
So they could have a party
And just enjoy themselves
A break away from cleaning
And washing with the dew
A time to let their hair down
And sing some songs anew
Perhaps they’ll drink some nectar
And dance amongst the weeds
While skirting around the nettles
Whose leaves forever tease
The fireflies will guard them
And keep them all from harm
Those joyful little people
Who give my garden charm…..
