WHITE BUTTERFLIES

WHITE BUTTERFLIESAlgernon Charles Swinburne

Fly, white butterflies, out to sea,Frail, pale wings for the wind to try,Small white wings that we scarce can see,Fly.Some fly light as a laugh of glee,Some fly soft as a long, low sigh;All to the haven where each should be,Fly.

Some fly soft as a long, low sigh;

All to the haven where each should be,

Fly.
