Rebirth With Silken Wings

The caterpillar once thought,
It had reach the end of its world.
Then, it turned into a beautiful butterfly.

Flights of fancy on silken, enchanted wings,
Dusted with gold,
Floating as if suspended in a dream.

The delicate butterfly
Drawn irresistibly to the lush flowers and berries of a beautiful garden green.
Seemingly unaware their presence here
Has completed the magic of the moment.

Author notes

I hope this makes you sigh. It's the best I can come up with so quick. Thank you.

    I like this! It's a great poem with powerful imagry. I like how you chose a butterfly. I agree when you say something about magic. Starting out as a cute but slightly ugly caterpiller, to change into such a beautfil and magnificant bug is magic. God's magic. I love this poem. Keep up the great work!
