Birthing a Butterfly

 



With the Gentleness of a Butterfly Wing

 

Fiona, butterfly # 62 whispers goodbye

and thank you, Debi.

 

Such a small act of kindness

you provide

one caterpillar,

one cocoon,

one butterfly at a time.

 

Such tender loving care

you provide;

giving us a safe environment

with food and shelter

as we morph

from one stage to another;

watching over us daily

to set us free at the moment

of our destiny.

 

With great care, 

and the gentleness of a butterfly wing,

You release us back to nature

and watch as we spread our wings

and fly away

on our long journey

and short life

to continue birthing butterflies 

for the goodness and beauty of life

for many generations to come.


Care for nature and those around you 

with the gentleness of a butterfly wing.


We are all birthing butterflies in our lives.

What are the butterflies that you're birthing now?

What beauty are you nurturing now 

to release into the world for the good of us all?
