They are peaceful, colorful creatures. They live off of flowers and nectar. Some are black, some are rainbow, some are blue and some look like they have eyes. Majestic little bugs, aren't they?
But they don't start out majestic. They transform from pathetic little worms into beautiful winged fliers.

You can write about the literal being of a butterfly, or about a metaphor relating to these bugs.

Have a lovely week,
~Kiarorin

I just saw your Q&A section and am curious as to if there's a mature content folder or if it's to be submitted some where else?

I am also new and I have no idea what I'm doing. I think I sent in The Spider's Web but I'm not sure.

On another note, thanks for the acceptance.
