I Never Saw Another Butterfly

The poem I chose for my butterfly project was "Sickness" by Franca Bass. This poem tells about a sudden sickness a boy has gotten. The way the sickness goes away is by his mother reading him his favorite story. I believe this poem tells about how the "sickness" was actually the moving of Jews out of their houses and killing them and the "story" was about how the Germans covered it all up. This poem shows there is more than meets the eye if you read a poem and know context.
