My Butterfly
By Rhonda Ramirez

My little angel up above
For whom I so deeply love
He was special right from birth
His life was short here on Earth

He couldn’t run or dance or play
But his spirit was ready to be free
For that reason he just couldn’t stay
And he’s like a butterfly you see

He can spread his wings across the sky
Never will he have to cry
In Heaven, there is no sickness, hunger or tears
We will meet again this we know
But it’s still hard letting go

Until with him I get to be
Lord, please kiss him goodnight for me
Let him know I love him for eternity
And think of him often as days go by
My boy, My Angel, My Butterfly!
