Oh ugly butterfly
They think less of you
When you were a caterpillar
There was hope
The children caught you
Placed you in a jar
Picked you leaves
And watched you grow
Hatched
From a cocoon
Sprouted wings
But "oh no"
They were not colorful
The children released you
Just let you go
"Fly away ugly butterfly"
They scream and shout
"We do not love you
for you are not beautiful"
The children did not love him, for he was not beautiful.
