Two Butterflies Were Flitting

Two butterflies were flitting
In their garden of delights
When one said to the other
‘How can this freedom be right?
As on this earth
There is travail and pain
The other replied
‘Understanding instils Hope again’

When we were in our cocoons
Surrounded by dark walls
We were being told
These would fall

But in that dark cavern
How could we perceive
This Garden of delights
Reserved for you and me

…As they flittered happily
In the still morning hour
Their loving Creator
Who made all things by His power
Watched lovingly
As they spread their wings
As the songs of the birds
Herald ‘This is NOW Spring’

…’In our cocoons
What did we learn
To Let Go and Be Still
Love unconditionally and Truth discern’

…Now flying high
Flitting free
Two transformed butterflies
Bring comfort quite naturally

These two butterflies
In His Garden of Delights
Chose to know their Maker
Then darkness was penetrated by His Light.
