Beautiful

O' winsome, mirthful thing 
Up, up, and out in spring

From the cocoon, you were birthed
Into the light is where you'll see your worth 

A beautiful creation to the world 
A bundle of magic that's waiting to unfurl 

Now, out fluttering and uttering a new beginning 
A fresh essence and energy brimming

Lithely through the air you go
Fluttering  and darting to and fro

A quiet power and a mutable essence, you behold 
Remember this as you allow your truth to be told

So beautiful one, make sure to enjoy your flight
For soon, oh too soon, winter will come and bid a good night
