Elysium

Where do stars go when they die?
What about flowers?
Heaven must be an awful place
Without stars or flowers.
Butterflies would not like it there,
Nor would little girls.
Maybe there's another heaven
For butterflies and little girls.
Maybe it's like the perfect summer's night and day
In fields of stars and flowers.
Oh how I wand to dance there
In those fields where colors never fade.
