Pretty Butterfly

O pretty Butterfly, what do you do? - I flitter and flutter joyfully around. Your colors, how awesome hey glow In the sunshine so bright and gay. Have you ever pondered on anything before? - O yes, from deep within the core of a cocoon! Then how did you evolve, grow and develop? Was it a struggle with much effort and strength? - I was a worm-eating, leaf-eating caterpillar. One day I realized that I have a great dream. - I spun myself, wrapping myself in, - To ponder and think on what a guy could do. - I crept out of that cocoon, bursting with thought, - And me as a butterfly crawled out in delight. - At first I was "wet", wings soft and all, - Emerging fit for nurture on Mother nature's shore. - What do I do, you asked of me, teaching from experience - From flower to flower: "Enjoy life as it is"!
