The Butterfly

In the cocoon lies a secret A metaphorical preparation for life And from the struggle emerges The butterfly - one of the world’s most beautiful sights Spreading its wings Strong – from the earlier years Unaware The process – the maturation, from overcoming all fears The harder the battle The more beautiful life’s flight Strength - confidence gets developed Our vision becomes clear and precise So let’s spread our wings Trust and appreciate all lessons learned Take the given advice Work hard – be content with all you have earned From the cocoon we shall rise Glorious colors to behold Like the butterfly Our life story gets told How ironic – the reward is the struggle
