PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Tiny caterpillar legs wander
around grass to find
fresh, bright green leaves
for nibbling upon.

Changes begin happening to
this little creature until
it's not a caterpillar,
but a creature in a cocoon.

Wrapped in this cocoon
sprouting wings show adulthood
claiming this transformer
and the rest follows in pursuit.

The cocoon perishes
like a groggy dream forgotten
and its place is a
vibrantly colored butterfly.

Wings flap into unknown places
while we gaze in awe
at watching our beloved
soaring butterfly.
