When I crawled on the ground and took baby steps
I fixed my eyes on you
Even when I hung upside down from a twig in a silky cocoon
I dreamt of you
At long last, I evolve and flutter so high,
Only to reunite with you, my love!
My first attempt in being so short and crisp. 😛
Prompts include:
Word prompt: REUNION, Phrase Prompt: ‘At long last’ and the Picture Prompt
Kohl-Eyed Me 
This was such a beautiful take on the prompt. Evolution never sounded so fabulous 🙂

Dear Shalini,
I must say that this doesn’t seem like your first attempt 🙂 Very pleased with what you have done here! I especially liked the evolution that you built , of the butterfly’s life cycle. Somehow it also resonates with our own growth, doesn’t it? 🙂
Thank you for linking up with the Fiction hop!
