Butterfly by Night and Day by Anna Rotor c. 1996  

Do butterflies ever sleep? A child asked me, a grown up.

        Yes they do, I answered;

Do butterflies rise from their sleep and play with the moon?

        Yes, they do, I answered;

Do butterflies change colors during the day and at night?

        Yes, they do, I answered.

Do butterflies ever get lonely and sad - and then - die?

        Yes, they do, I answered.

Do butterflies return the next morning and meet the sun? 

       Yes they do, I answered. 

I have been a grown up for so long to know butterflies.~
