Coccons in the leaves
show potential of becoming butterflies
But some wither away
with the sunlight
Somethings die before they're born
Growing strong
huge belly
beating fast
But one day
no heart beat
it's paralized stuck in time
Must be remove from it's mom
Somethings die before they're born
Little dry beans
spread in mud
Just add water and they'll grow
But sometimes it happens sometimes it don't
Somethings die before they're born.

yes, and somethings are reborn, and that's the beauty of life!  (I think)

Wonderful write of things that usually are shied away from..my thoughts? gentle smile, they will be reborn with a greater capacity to be what they will be, it is not yet their time for glory..
