Mulberry Trees and Butterflies

     Larvae of certain Butterflies 
     exhibiting a real surprise :
      eating only mulberry leaves ,
     though it is too hard to believe !

     Larvae silkworms , that special  !
     Mulberry trees truly crucial
      in their typical life cycle,
      necessarily means own style.

      Larval stage is caterpillar 
       chewing leaves, so peculiar !
      Metamorphosis on next step
      butterfly taking its nice shape !
        
      All butterflies follow this norm.
      to attain its full mature form,
      chewing leaves as caterpillar 
      but butterfly sipping nectar.
      
       This is the natural story 
       but for silk worm category 
       Mulberry leaves : only selection 
        They were left no other option.
