Poem of the Week: Butterfly Life Cycle Poem

Butterfly Life Cycle Poem

A tiny egg,
On teeny tree,
Teeny, tiny egg you see...

Teeny, tiny, insect egg,
Hatched a tiny,
Thing with legs...

And that tiny,
Furry mound,
Took a little look around,

What's that furry,
Crawling thing?
Here's the answer,
Here I sing...

Caterpillar,
From the egg,
Eating leaves,
Gets well-fed...

Caterpillar,
Eats a heap,
Finds a quiet place to sleep...

Larva covered,
Covered soon,
In a really, cool cocoon...

Inside changes,
Did occur,
Metamorphosis?
Yes sir!

And I waited,
Wait and wait,
Turns to something really great...

One day I see,
With my eye,
This beautiful,
Butterfly!
