Crouching chameleon
Cloaked in green
Awaits it's prey
Basking butterfly
Palate of vibrant hues
Awaits floral brush
Chameleon captures
Fleeting ,fluttering life
Lights up in flames of hue
As colour transcends life

- Comment from author about the poem: Chameleons change colour and so does life. This is based on the transcience of life and colours...Chameleons usually display bright colors when they're excited ...what I want to elucidate here through the metaphor of the chameleon and the butterfly is that colours i.e possessions change hands or owners with time in life and nature...Ephemeral colours may sometimes vanish from our lives only to return again to light up our lives with vibrant hues ....

What does the poor butterfly represent m?
The butterfly represents the innocence of life that is sometimes killed by rational thought
Can you explain that into more detail I’m intrigued
