Verso l' alto! To the heights!
- I pray that you are all doing well. Know that God is blessing each of you abundantly, whether you realize it or not! Praise God for another gift of a day!
- So...I'm still in that flashback to my past...8th grade poetry, anyone? Well, I hope you all enjoy, and like always, feel free to tell me what you think--whether it be harsh or gentle, I love to hear it! :D God bless!
Butterfly
- See, now in the cocoon
- There is the little butterfly
- Laying, resting, waiting
- For the day of freedom
- The day to spread its wings
- And fly into the sky
- The other creatures mock
- The butterfly in the cocoon
- They know not how lovely
- This creature is now becoming
- It is protected from
- The dark, strong, and powerful storms
- Protected, it is safe
- From the wrath of the deadly storm
- It waits, and grows, quite strong
- As it lies in its small cocoon.
- But here—the day has come
- When the butterfly is ready
- To face the harsh dangers
- That the world has to offer it.
- Now, the butterfly will
- Face the harsh dangers and fight them.
- It will join the others
- Who stand in the storm and fight it
- The butterfly is free
- And will bring beauty to the Earth
- As those had done before.
- What a mystery it is
- As a butterfly in a cocoon,
- So we need to learn and grow
- As the butterfly stretches it’s wings
- We will stretch our wings someday
- And, as the butterfly in the sky
- We will soar.
