Flight

A life of a butterfly

By Rhodel RamosPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

In meadows kissed by golden sun,

A story of a life begun,

A humble caterpillar's birth,

Unfolding miracles on Earth.

With patient grace, it starts to grow,

A transformation soon will show,

Within a chrysalis, a dream,

A metamorphosis unseen.

From dormant slumber, it awakes,

New life in delicate flakes,

Emerging with its wings unfurled,

A butterfly, a newfound world.

With vibrant colors, it takes flight,

Through boundless skies, it soars in light,

Exploring lands both far and wide,

With freedom as its constant guide.

From flower to flower, it dances on air,

Collecting tales of scents so rare,

A nectar feast, a sweet delight,

Its mission clear, to spread delight.

Through summer days and autumn's kiss,

The butterfly knows pure bliss,

It drinks from life's ephemeral streams,

Living fully, chasing dreams.

But time is fleeting, moments fleet,

The butterfly's lifespan, bittersweet,

Yet in its brief existence lies,

A legacy that never dies.

For in its dance, we learn the art,

To cherish life, each fragile part,

To embrace change with open wings,

And let our souls take flight, and sing.

So, let us marvel at this creature's flight,

And learn from its journey, shining bright,

A lesson taught in colors bold,

The life of a butterfly, a story to be told.
