the butterfly blues
is when you've got just a TOUCH of the blues
no Ma Rainey or Muddy
just a touch flitting about
your favorite restaurant has shut down
or your picnic got rained on
that's the butterfly blues
perhaps you're considering lighting up
a forsworn cigarette
or going on a shopping spree
to escape the little weights
clipping your wings just a TOUCH
no Etta or Billie Holiday
just the butterfly blues
flitting about
until...
up pops a pretty flower to land on
supplying you with
answers to settle
your unsettled mind
and Presto! you'll soon notice
those butterfly blues have
been left far behind!
