In a world of wonder, a tiny egg is laid,
On a leaf it rests, in the shade it’s made,
Hatching into a caterpillar, small and green,
Munching on leaves, in a peaceful scene.
Slowly it grows, shedding its old skin,
Becoming larger, with a brand new spin,
Creating a chrysalis, a silken cocoon,
Transforming within, like a magical boon.
Emerging as a butterfly, bright and free,
Spreading its wings, for the world to see,
Fluttering and dancing, in the golden light,
A glorious transformation, such a wondrous sight.
A symbol of beauty, a journey so grand,
From humble beginnings, to a destiny so grand,
The lifecycle of a butterfly, a delightful show,
A miraculous metamorphosis, from head to toe.
