Me Before I Found Myself

I cannot forsee outside of me I'm explaining why I am not free This tight brigade is of lovely jade could this be where I am made It is a nest for me to rest so I can grow and be my best Then I shall emerge oh what a surge I can show off if I have the urge For this is me a true beauty for that is what I am to be

GO FOR IT!!! Now this is more like it. No one needs to believe in you. If you believe in yourself you have no limits to what you can accomplish. Vince

Aah, the metamorphosis of the cacoon to the butterfly us so well described here, but is it for the butterfly that exists in nature or the butterfly that exists in us all? hmmm Love the visual quality of the write and the directness, 1st person. Wonderful to read you again as well and thank you for your great thoughts on my work. Michael
