Butterfly Myths Novels & Stories

Theo listened with rapt attention, his mind absorbing every word. He learned that fireflies, also known as lightning bugs, are actually beetles, not bugs. He learned that they use their light to attract mates, communicate, and even defend themselves. He learned about their life cycle, from egg to larva to pupa to adult, and how they transform from tiny, lightless creatures to glowing beacons of the night. He also learned about the myths and legends surrounding fireflies. He heard stories of how they were once the stars fallen from the sky, their light a reflection of the celestial glow. He heard tales of how they guided lost travelers through the darkness, their lights like tiny lanterns in

She is in my past now and if I have any plans of moving forward, I have no choice but to let her go forever. I like to think of fireflies escaping in the night with their wings stretched in the air without fear. I like to think of butterflies too as I said earlier but I think i prefer fireflies more. Insects are wonderful little creatures that moves in an orderly manner I presume. Take a look at soldier ants. Do they not march in a single file, persuading each other to keep up the hustle and never get tired? I won't think of soldier ants marching in a single file when I go to bed today neither will I think of fireflies or butterflies flying freely in the air with outstretched wings. Rather,

When we get to the peak, the sunrise is worth the climb. My wings will dry at the top. And one day, when I'm ready to tell my story, the story of Natalie Ashman, I won't be afraid anymore. I'll be able to fly, fly like the butterfly. Butterflies are beautiful creatures that no one can grab in the sky. They are free to roam the earth. They take their beauty wherever they go. Everyone who has seen a butterfly knows they were a caterpillar. Caterpillars go through a magical transformation and end up in beauty. That will be me. I will spread my wings and fly. I will fly like a butterfly. And I will never be busted bubblegum ever again.

I am always interested in butterflies. These beautiful species were considered to be the reincarnation of the soul. In some belief butterflies is a personification of a person's soul; whether they are living, dying, or already dead. One superstition says that if a butterfly enters your guest room and perches behind the bamboo screen, the person whom you most love is coming to see you. Another superstition is that butterflies represent the soul, in some beliefs, it symbolizes rebirth. In our culture, a lingering black butterfly or moth in the house is taken to mean a death in the family. (Wikipedia)

"Demi, how many times do I tell you don't stick out your tongue when you talk like that, its name is a butterfly." Gerald giggled, talking to his daughter. "Dad, as long as Demi says buththerfly, then buththerfly is unfair to the Princess." Damontry frowned as she gestured to her father with her small hand. "Okay, princess, don't be upset." Lauren said. While Lauren was busy making a few sandwiches for her little girl, Damontry crossed the line of protection without her parents, turning away a little and running after the colorful butterfly until she was stopped by a strange snarling that caused the butterfly to fly away.

"But I didn't know they was real butterflies. I thought you maked them. Like Mummy maked dresses and things." "No, Princess. They're real butterflies. And now we can keep them pretty forever."

“Remember what I told you the other day about some bugs having weird names? It’s the same with this one. Just like how a ladybug is a bug but not always a lady or how a butterfly can fly but it’s not butter.” “Oh. Just have weiwd name?” “Yes.” “Ok. What that, Mama?” “That’s a cocoon. After some time, a caterpillar will make one and then kind of sleep inside it. Then when it wakes up after a while, it’ll be a butterfly. You could say that’s where butterflies come from.” “So catpilly baby buttewfly?” “You could say that.” “Mama, I needs go potty again.” “Ok, let’s go.” A few hours later...

There were only owls and eagles in that forest, flying from tree to tree. A web of spiders ensnared the butterfly as she attempted to fly from her perch atop the enormous, dry tree. Despite her best efforts to free herself, her lovely wings remain stuck in the web. In my attempt to release the butterfly from the spider web, I moved closer to that enormous tree, but the butterfly perished before I could release the trap.

Some butterflies fly in different colors that change from flower to flower. My brain is completely consumed by the things I think about. I just closed my eyes because even Grandpa didn't want to believe it. Elijah, on the other hand, did not fully believe. No one believed in me and there was a part of me that couldn't accept that. They don't seem to trust me. I was about to speak but I heard some rustling so I didn't continue. I wondered if it was an animal making the rustling noises but I heard more of what sounded like wings.

The prosecutor rose again, his eyebrows filled with anxiety. Mu Zi's expression was innocent as she looked at the judge, "I just think that the witness doesn't know enough about the habits of this type of moth, it is clearly written in the appraisal report that this type of moth will only lay eggs on the host plant, as if the host plant of many phoenix butterflies is the aristolochia, if there is no such plant as aristolochia, will they go to another plant to lay eggs? No, they wouldn't, they would just die."
