Unfolding to the World

As I was walking through my garden,
I was amazed to see—

A rosebud opening slowly,
stretching toward the light
without hesitation.

Then I saw a chrysalis unfolding
into a Painted Lady butterfly,
its wings trembling,
surprised by its own
majestic beauty.

Suddenly, there was a burst
of colors—orange, black, and white—
blooming into the cool air.

Small moments of change—
petals unfurling before me,
wings gently testing the wind,
a quiet breath before flight.

The world opens up
as I stand, watching,
enthralled by nature’s wonders.
