Spiral Butterflies
I am enamored with butterflies, from their magical metamorphosis to the spirit of their flight. To me they are the embodiment of freedom. I began giving all butterflies spirals and luminous colors. My Spiral butterflies as a result emerged like caterpillars from their cocoons. I present pure expression of spiritual freedom. Here is my poem that goes along with the Spiral butterflies:
"I embrace the blank spaces,
between solitary raindrops
in May and Augusts’ fields of
exhaustion, between the caterpillar
and its silk, between the squab
nesting and her hatch, between
impenetrable summer days
and the swish of butterfly wings."
