The Caterpillar

"Spread your wings on a warm summer's day and wave us all goodbye..."
* Inspired by the beauty in small things *

Dearest little caterpillar,
Tiptoe graciously across the battered leaf.

Oh, how small you are, little caterpillar,
Compared to the grand, cruel world.

People take advantage of you, little caterpillar,
They do not realise how unique you are.

It is only a matter of time, little caterpillar,
Until you blossom and shed light on the corrupted space.

Let your whimsical self guide the fallen,
And shed light on those with lost hope.

So go forth, little caterpillar,
And find beauty in negative spaces.
