Cocooned Just like a butterfly trapped tight, her folded wings await the flight. Cocooned, she fears what to expect when from her safety, disconnects. With wings of flight, she must escape into a world with new landscape... Just like a butterfly entrapped inside a world so tightly capped. Cocooned, she fears the world outside seen from within...freedom denied. Transfiguration, a gift of few... needs wings of flight to change her view.

Nicely penned, Sandra, that which dwells in many, the fear of leaving comfort zones: "Cocooned, she fears what to expect when from her safety, disconnects." :) Congrats! ~ Artsie
