Metamorphosis Poem by Patricia Grantham
Metamorphosis
Found under the eaves or corners of a house
In a crevice, crack or just out on a wall
Far out of reach and from the prying eyes
Safely secured so that it will never fall
Spins a soft and silky weave around itself
As beautiful as a bride adorned in her dress
Wrapped in its cocoon till the passing of time
In order to withstand the cold winters test
When the powdery white snow begins to melt
Then the first signs of spring is surely felt
It emerges from its warm and cozy built nest
So little time to wander or even take a rest
With rainbow of colors splashed on its wings
Wonders that shows the beauty nature brings
Flits and flutters in the warm and balmy air
Alights on colorful flowers without even a care
Its time on this earth seems to be so very short
Like a tale that is told will soon come to naught
Transformed from caterpillar to a butterfly free
If it can change so then why can't you and me

Beautifully written, Patricia. And a meaningful message. Loved reading it.
A beautiful and very descriptive poem. I could see this butterfly's Metamorphosis as I read, like watching one of those speed-ed up videos. A wonderful story to read first thing in the morning as I get ready to start my day.
