For Butterfly contest sponsored by SKAT
It floats through the air effortlessly Wings beating at high velocity A navigational marvel instinctively It's amazing with 5 stages of puberty With a 4" wingspan it's really impressive Every one tries to catch one for their collection They fly every which way in every direction Stunning beauty seen upon closer inspection The monarch is king of all butterflies the rest pale in comparison Flies from Canada to Mexico to the fourth generation. It's an amazing creature with one distinguishing feature You can tell the male by the black spot on the tail. The complete metamorphosis from one form to another. Reminds me how we too can change from one thing to another. From selfish to kind, from hateful to loving but we must make the choice, as we are free agents, free like the butterfly but without instinctive wisdom we need help from above.
