Bishop Allen Butterfly Nets
calm that wicked wind,
to pick you up
and carry you off eastward,
though i did release you
for to seek a warmer sky
should you be blown back
know that i will always run to greet you,
still surprised to catch you
every time
armed with this small butterfly net
i will face the world alone
& never be lonely
so calm that wicked wind,
& if you go, you could be gone forever
i will play awhile here
by & by & by & by -
armed with this small butterfly net
i will face the world alone
& never be lonely
up & up you go
for to steal the secrets of the heavens
will you share them with me
my bright & brilliant spy?
should you be blown back
know that i will always run to greet you
still surprised to catch you
every time
still surprised to catch you
by & by & by & by -
