Soar Upward Against the Wind
A butterfly with wings frail
Rises heavenward against the wind
Witnessing life’s conflicting direction
Floating constantly upward
What chrysalis owned you?
How solitary is your world?
Alone each day
A silent, windless end
Fly, butterfly, fly!
Why accept this knowing
You can soar out of the rain
Into the sunny world
Of Love
