Poems

“May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun, And find your shoulder to light on,
To bring you luck, happiness and riches, Today, tomorrow and beyond.

~Irish Blessing

A child is…….. A butterfly in the wind. Some can fly higher than others; but each one flies the best it can.
Why compare one against the other? Each one is different! Each one is special! Each one is beautiful!”

~Author Unknown
