Author: Ruth McEnery Stuart [More Titles by Stuart]

Sis' Butterfly aimed to work all right,
But 'er wings dey was heavy, an' 'er head too light;
So she riz in de air, 'ca'ze she see she was made
Jes' to fly in de sun in de beauty parade.
An' she ain't by 'erself in dat, in dat--
An' she ain't by 'erself in dat.

[The end]
Ruth McEnery Stuart's poem: Butterfly
