oblivious to what he will become
still searching for nourishment and gleening
that soon will be time to sleep and change
but does he sense the true meaning?
held by gravity to feed and forage; grasping
blindly following those things that come by instinct
not knowing that the future holds lift and loft
to imagine such visions, his scope too succinct.
until embraced within a chrysalis of promise
firmly affixed within a cornucopia of leaf and branch
left to contemplate, perhaps to simply slumber
until with wings he will magnificently hatch!
do I regard the voracious caterpillar with wonder?
may I have a look inside the one creator's plan?
can I know I will also become the butterfly,
or the next phase beyond being a man?
