Wings flowing back and forth Keeping little butterfly up Wind challenging the little insect Strong breezes tumbling To the north The little butterfly must go The road not easy nor perfect No time for bumbling The bees may rumble and bumble But not little butterfly Little butterfly is silent and graceful Now which of the two survives?

Little butterfly
Wings flowing back and forth Keeping little butterfly up Wind challenging the little insect Strong breezes tumbling To the north The little butterfly must go The road not easy nor perfect No time for bumbling The bees may rumble and bumble But not little butterfly Little butterfly is silent and graceful Now which of the two survives?
Sometimes I feel like a bee being loud and obnoxious. Other times I feel as if I am the butterfly keeping to myself; floating through life quietly. There is a time and place for both. If you are a bee at the wrong time you pay the consequences. If you are a butterfly at the wrong time you miss out on certain opportunities in life.
