And then the butterfly untrap itself from the chrysalis and spread its wings out
At last! its eyes were wide open and it marveled at every blossoming flower
and sweetness of the nectar
with sheer joy it flew back to tell the caterpillars about its awesome discovery but none of them believed it
They doubted it because they have never had wings to fly and witness the world above ground
And so with every inch in the air the butterfly decided to fly away and find those of its kind. Far it flew and never looked back
The end.
