Green, ugly and very wriggly,
The unabated supreme ruler
Of his small, leafy world
Has heart filled with delight
And worry kept a stranger.

Ever blinded by excitement,
Munching his loved leaves,
Living life at a leisure pace.
He loves his entire green world,
But wasn’t always loved back.


When open eyes stare into a mirror,
His own flaws unveiled,
And so made up his mind,
To change for his loved world,
To change for his own sake.


Rough roads met tough feet,
Pain seared, but will soared.
Withdrawn into an ugly cocoon,
Set to win back lost hearts
And proud to struggle en route.


Light shone at the tunnel’s end;
Sweet fruits beyond withering flowers.
The unabated ruler reinstated,
Eternal happiness now back home.
Out of a cocoon arises a beautiful moth!
