This story explains the life cycle of butterflies as a sign of spring. It begins with butterflies emerging with the onset of spring after being dormant in winter. The story describes their life cycle, from an egg affixed to a plant to the caterpillar stage, where it eats and grows. As the caterpillar sheds its skin multiple times, it eventually forms a chrysalis, preparing for a transformation. Finally, a new butterfly emerges, dry and vibrant, ready to take flight in the spring air, as both butterflies and tulips herald the arrival of spring.
