Butterfly

Butterfly

You came into our lives 
Rather fragile
A new cocoon 
So very delicate
 In need of love
Attention
And room to grow
Like A 

Butterfly

Everyday you grow
You are changing right before our eyes
And while in our hearts you will always be 
A little girl
In the blink of an eye
You will grow up and spread
Your wings and fly
Like a beautiful 

Butterfly

Top notch and beautiful in it's own right. This poem is as awesome as the metamorphosis of the butterfly used as imagery. A gracious tribute to a loving little one held so precious. Sincerely, Moses
