Butterfly Woman

Guarded by butterflies
Sent from the Light
Before me and behind me
To left and to right
Butterflies below me
- I walk on their Flight –
Butterflies above me
- all day and all night.

*********

See my Path beneath my feet,
And stretching to the dawn! –
Butterfly wings like cobblestones
Inviting me beyond
The edges of myself complete…
Though really not at all –
I walk on clouds of butterflies
And know I will not fall.

********

Quieter than most,
This Butterfly host –
Escorting me o’er the Rift;
Til Spirit brings
Truth of my wings
And I accept the Gift.

************

Butterflies, gentle as flakes of snow
Yet stronger than wood or steel,
Set me to pondering in this Flow
What their coming to me reveals.

**********

How symbolic the knowledge
That my cocoon
Is formed by this mystic weave
Of butterflies dancing and
Singing a Tune,
Sung – at first – on Creation’s Eve.

********

Here now the Mission
Of thy Soul:
To trust and fly and
Loose control.

**********

Butterflies fluttering beneath bare feet
- a Path unlike any known –
no matter I run or jump or sleep,
their Spirit enwraps my own;
their sentient Tapestry
flows with me
- separate and yet as One –
a kaleidoscopic mystery
whose Presence is ‘round me spun.

*********

Be here, and listen to the Song
The butterflies sing to thee –
Sunshine whispers between their wings
In mystical harmony.

*********

Learn, my Child, the Butterfly Dance,
As they are teaching you –
Here’s your Dream wrapped up in Chance
- with wings of Indigo-blue.

********

Butterflies
- indoors and out –
Transformation
- within, without –

*********

Wings of Phoenix
Wings of Elf
Wings of Butterfly
Wings of Self…
Currents of Deepness
Currents of Night
Currents of Spirit
Currents of Light…
Truth of Becoming
Truth of the Sidhe
Truth of Transforming
The Truth of Me.
