The Butterfly

Or way of thinking.
From…
The caterpillar, through the chrysalis,

Determination and perseverance
Gives the power to move through the
Incubation that is left behind.
Wings…
Of color give flight,
To that which has been hidden.
In a mesmerizing explosion of
Beauty, Luminescence Essence,
And an aura of totally free expression.
As…
We watch in wonder, the exquisite
And beautiful dance of the butterfly.
One cannot help but wonder,
How, as humans, we can achieve the
Same voyage of the inevitable
Magnificence of a metamorphosis.
A…

Overcoming the struggles and strife,
Of a seemingly impossible task.

Is the path of change for
Growth and expansion.
A new foundation has been laid, giving way for another process and a new level of self-transformation.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
