Life is a process just like the butterfly,
We change and grow we learn to fly,
Evolving, becoming, the best we can be,
Living life, fully, and happily.
So spread your wings, and take to the sky,
Embrace your journey,
Becoming the butterfly, is a beautiful thing,
A symbol of growth, a true blessing.
