My posts in A to Z challenge this April will be on questions!

Why do BUTTERFLIES undergo metamorphosis?

Starting from an egg
Emerging into a caterpillar
Several time transforming
Finally before the turning into an adult
It weaves a cocoon of silk to sleep in
And emerges as a transformed butterfly
With beauty to awe all beholders
Butterfly, a symbol of change and endurance
Teaches us that each stage of life is beautiful

It certainly does, Sadje…and each stage necessary to the one that comes after. Beautifully stated! 💞💞💞

Butterflies also represent the ephemeral nature of joy. It’s my philosophical take 🙂

Lovely. Monarchs have 5 generations from the start of spring to end of fall – with the last adult butterflies returning to Mexico or other warm places. I’ve seen photos of trees so covered with Monarchs that you can’t see the tree!

I hope the Monarchs have other places. I read that their Mexico habitat is shrinking…

“Monarchs migrate up to an incredible 3,000 miles east of the Rocky Mountains to reach central Mexico, whereas the shorter trek west of the Rockies takes them to the coast of California, where they breed.”…
So I guess some also go to California.

Whatever they go, I hope their habitat is preserved for them.

Thanks a lot for those wholesome words. Sometimes we as small caterpillars are afraid of what comes next. One day we’ll spread our beautiful wings.
