Poem: Ode to the butterfly (through death to life)


Part 1 - Death and Burial
In death find rest
Oh worm that I am
I welcome the coming rest
The dying sleep
Swallow me
In my slumbering cocoon
Envelope me
In the sleep of death

Part 2 - Resurrection
Push through the dead shell
Into the living world
Leave death behind
In new life be free
Unfold new wings
Rise into the sky
Embrace the world and soar
Alive and free
