butterflies...

Butterflies butterflies everywhere
close your eyes and turn three times
when you do you will see
all is there for you and me
time to play and time to dance
you just have to take a chance...

When time is done you will know
the chimes will ring and start to sing
just touch your toes and squeeze your nose
when your done repeat this verse
butterflies butterflies everywhere...

Be of haste
there's no time to waste
when you see a bell that starts to yell
this is how you know it is time to go and say goodbye
tomorrow is another day
there's time to play and time to dance
tomorrow you can take that chance
remember the chimes
remember the bell
for when you're there all is well

This reminds me when I was in Elementary School. My 5th grade class raised butterflies (during that year they were my favorite animal because of this).
This reminds me of the lovely sense of innocence and freedom those butterflies gave me.
Thanks for writing this.

Love this, very childlike and very fun :D

Very childlike and innocent; it peaked my imagination and I could practically hear a child giggling and singing to herself. I used to see smaller kids running around and babbling to themselves all day long and wonder what was so fun about it - the imagination is what keeps us from going insane, but we all need a healthy dose of insanity sometimes ! I really enjoyed this, though the capitalization and use of "your" instead of "you're" always urks me. Excellent job, never the less !

I liked this because it was so upbeat and it made me think of children singing it as they played a game in the street or in a park. Good use of imagery.
