When she climbed a plant and learned of the sky,
She looked down at the earth and wondered why
her destiny was to live on the land.
Something inside her did not understand.
'The sky is my home', every part of her felt
'How could crawling be the lot Išve been dealt?'
Keeping those thoughts where they could be found,
She slowly descended back to the ground.
When she found the right plant on which to rest,
She brilliantly wove a cocoon for her nest.
Inside this new home, she went to sleep
tucked in with those thoughts that she wanted to keep...
....One sunny day, the cocoon came unsealed.
Magically, a butterfly was revealed.
Seeing this miracle with my own eyes
(caterpillars becoming butterflies),
Reminds me of the possibility
of the total transformation of me!
Like the caterpillar that crawls the Earth,
We are destined for a divine rebirth.
