A Butterfly Needs to be Loved
Based on a writing prompt submitted by @eunicesoe.vics
A scientist conducted an experiment with two caterpillars.
They are of the same species, and roughly the same size and age.
He fed one of the caterpillars with only the best quality leaves. He made sure to control the lighting and moisture level of the ecosystem to promote growth. And before long, the caterpillar transformed itself into its chrysalis form, bidding its time while undergoing metamorphosis.

Dearest,
If you were still alive,

Once Upon a Dreary Time — a poem
