- First,the poem say: "Brown and furry" describes the caterpillar's exterior. And the poem say: "caterpillar in a hurry" describes the caterpillar's very short life. "Spin and die, to live again a butterfly." is saying the caterpillar finally turns into a butterfly.
- The caterpillar stops eating, hangs upside down from a twig or leaf and spins itself a silky cocoon or molts into a shiny chrysalis.
- Within its protective casing, the caterpillar radically transforms its body, eventually emerging as a butterfly or moth.
- Spin and die to live again a butterfly" on one level is about a caterpillar spinning its cocoon, but on another level, it might refer to a spinster who appears to have missed her opportunity on earth, but will be resurrected gloriously in heaven
