Butterfly Wisdom and Transitions for the Caterpillar in Each of Us

Aerial Dancers, One and All In Time by Catherine Palmer Paton aka Livfully

Aerial Dancer

Alighting on Majestic Flower

On the Golden Red Tower

Applauds With Its Bright Wings

All of Creation Silently 

Displaying Its Mosaic Painted Wings

Then Disappearing The Mystery by 

Clapping Its Wings Shut

Whether This Creature Is Male

Or Female, Parent Or Child

This Monarch Butterfly 

Resting on The Iridescent 

Purple Cone Flower 

Is Part of Creaton 

As Are We All

As Is The Flower

The Soil and The Sky

To Which the

Delicate Yet Magical Butterfly

And Each of Us In Turn 

Will Return

 

This poem was inspired by a real life butterfly landing in my Turtle Garden
