Natures Transformational Flow
The forest is where the creatures and plants
Grow with the force that natures grants.
The rabbit that chews on leaves and grass.
The flower who’s beauty none surpass.
The river that flows to a great lake.
The frightened mouse gets eaten by a snake.
The Caterpillar who’s life was spent in a crawl.
Rests on a branch where she could easily fall.
She says her last prayers and spins a cocoon.
Accepting her life will end soon.
From dark to light to dark to dreams.
The illusion of death is not what its seems.
The life of the Caterpillar slowly submerges.
The spirit transforms as a butterfly emerges.
