Monarch Butterfly
A monarch butterfly in flight looks so beautiful
Unfortunately, there lives are ephemeral.
For a short time, they are grounded as a larva.
The caterpillar transforms inside its pupa.
Bursting from the cocoon, they spread their wings.
Few thing found in nature are like these things.
