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"!
