To Be Butterflies

The cycle starts An egg is laid In the weeks to come See what nature's made Their larva now Caterpillars to you and me See them feast On bush and tree To Chrysalis stage Under a leaf they fit If we sit and watch Their Pupa split Adult hood finally reached Imago phase wings breach Membrane dries ready for flight Natures beauty, an awesome sight Now Butterflies, they flutter-by Flapping through the air Scanning for a flower to land For pollen they want to share Winged beauties species all Peacock, Red Admiral Grace the air, plant to plant Colours wow they do enchant " inspired by a poem by Raul Moreno entitled Painted Wings "
