1st in the 'Top Secret 2016' competition

A small, little butterfly, twinkling through the air
Bright and cheerful, it flutters between the flowers
Swooping and diving, it catches the wind in its wings
Enjoying the day, loving the sunlight
Where do you go little butterfly, when it rains?
Do you hide away with the fairies until the sun shines again?
Whenever I see you, little butterfly
I always think of my sweet, loving Nana
“When you see a butterfly, think of me” she said, then was gone
I love you little butterfly
I love you Nana
