Resilient and strong
A persona so bright
But impossible to see
While she’s in full flight

Completely transparent
Though nothing to hide
Except the deepest of secrets
She keeps locked inside

A beautiful butterfly
With wings of crystal
Only seen by a few
Admired by all

If she’s idle long enough
They’ll refract the light
Displaying beautiful colors
A breathtaking sight

There’s nectar from nightshade
In the cocktails she makes
Aware of its toxin
Risk she willingly takes

Afraid of amphibians
Others trekking nearby
She keeps her distance
Afraid she might cry

A beautiful butterfly
With wings of crystal
Only seen by a few
Admired by all

If she’s idle long enough
They’ll refract the light
Displaying beautiful colors
A breathtaking sight

To her adversaries
Demons she’s faced
She appears illusive
With an unpleasant taste

But all who know her
Those she’s let inside
See elegance and charm
A Greta Oto full of pride

Beautiful butterfly
What a breathtaking site
…. An extraordinary Greta Oto
