There once was a butterfly being chased by a man with a net. He would try many tricks to get as close as he could get.
He left out her favorite food and plants, but he could never hold her in his hands. Instead he inherited a family of ants.
One day he caught her as she landed on a leaf. Her colors were magnificent as he admired her in disbelief.
The wait was now over, but soon he began to see that the beautiful butterfly was not very happy.
She moved from one plant to another searching for the perfect meal to eat.
The collector placed another butterfly in this house of which he had quite a few.... Now this butterfly was different because of it's hue. The moment it spotted Madame Butterfly its wings became heavy and turned a shade of blue.
Madame Butterfly went about her business with no clue at all..... oblivious about this suitor who sat affixed up on the wall.
He tried hard to gain her attention, but to no avail. It was like a sailboat moving without a sail.
Eventually they became a couple, but at times she tended to take flight. She entertained other butterflies who only moved their wings at night.
He chased her many times.....only for her to flee again. This arrangement wasn't working for him, so it had to come to an end.
Heartbroken he watched the one he grew to love mill about aimlessly in the air. Madame Butterfly's attention captured by one who didn't care.
The collector observed the behavior of the two and from his research picked up this clue.
Butterfly females are similar to humans before they commit, they often run from the one who truly loves them.
Butterfly females are just like humans too..... They often run away from the love that has been proven to be true.
