Lavishly, the fragrances of fresh flowers surround me like paradise
Where butterflies flutter freely
A place of variety and color —the butterfly garden
The scenery is ever so peaceful
Where joy and happiness flourishes
Where tranquil and calm – is the cry of the day
There is silence for the mind to think!
Where distresses are not a reality
The journey to get there is not easy…
But what is distance...when there’s joy and happiness?
What is time…when there is tranquil and calm?
Yes, life here is as it should be
In the butterfly garden
