Love Letter

Hello Madam Butterfly, with the looks of being caught between a rock and a hard place. While you were being formed and before ever you were born, I 
watched near by. I even observed you there all alone, never knowing how long it would be; but I waited for you.                                                                  
                                    
I really like your style, your courage, your  dedication, and can't wait for your exit. Yes, my dear, I have been eyeing you for days on end, looking forward to meeting you. Oh by the way, I am Mr. Bee, just one of many who know and understand hard work. I may be a horse of a different color, a different species, or to you, like a fish out of water. However, I know love when I see it, and I can feel it with you, as you struggle  in your cocoon.                                       

I was tempted to hasten your exit, but I knew better to leave you be, alone 
and naturally. I have a vision of what you'll look like when you break forth; and you will be just stunning. You'll be strong and free like me, and your feathers will be a sight to see as you fly with me. Oh sweet Madam Butterfly, all the bees and butterflies will be forced to stop and stare.                                    

We will be the first of our kind; most odd I'd say, but two of a kind to fall in love.  Moreover, we will pay them no mind, because I took the time to wait for you to be truly mind.
