Caterpillars And Snakes (A Reflection) Poem by Sari Mavi

Everything in the universe is being taught by
God is great for those who will think

Caterpillar
A caterpillar will fast for several months
If she wants to metamorphose into another form

Because the change is not an instant thing
It takes time and process to change

Snake
A snake must fast for several months
If he wants to change his skin
It takes time and process for him

Caterpillar
When the time is sufficient, the caterpillar changes
In another form, namely: a butterfly
A much more beautiful captivate than
When she became a caterpillar
So her name turned into a 'butterfly' preferred by anyone
Due to the elegance of her wings when she flies
Helps the pollination process on flowers

Snake
When it reaches the turn of the skin then peel off
Old skin replaced by new skin ones
He looks more 'fresh' with his new skins
But the physical form does not change
He is still a snake and is called a 'snake'
He was terrifying to anyone who met him
Children, adults, old and young people
