Caterpillar


 Why does everything come to an end?

Why do humans live a small time and then die?

Why does the caterpillar has to spread out her wings and fly away?

The caterpillar starts from a small egg.

It becomes bigger and it breaks its shell

It walks through the leaves trying to

Survive in the cold world

There is obstacles that are trying to stop

The caterpillar from succeeding

But the caterpillar doesn't give up

It keeps growing and growing

Stringer and stringer

Until it hits her final stage

The stage where she becomes a cocoon

Where she gets ready to spread her wings

And fly away

Wings that will bring happiness

Wings that will take her to heaven.
