Best Metamorphosis Poems
Goethe or The Metamorphosis of Plants Andre Masson
Too much to know, I just don't know it
As I fumble around, just a humble poet
Frustrated as I watch unfurl a show
I just don't know it, too much to know
Answers are near, in the palm of my hand
It's nobody's fault that I can't understand...

50 Words For Poe: Metamorphosis
"50 Words for Poe: Metamorphosis"
Intricate souls,
Complex needs
interconnected
Light energy
binds them
2 hearts
2 minds
Become
1 heart
1 mind
it’s all in the
timing
the complexities
of a trick
Reciprocity
with a kiss
intuitive
apport
the exchange
of a key,
The Gift
MAGIC
Metamorphosis
The answer to this
trick
begins with the binding
of his wrists

The Metamorphosis of Spring
Spring's mystical womb
Delivers new bloom
Each year
With bud and perfume
She flees Winter's tomb
With cheer,
And heeding the call
To be Summer's thrall
She leaps
To spread her green shawl
In emerald sprawl
Then creeps,
Inside Autumn's gown
With burnished gold crown
And reigns
In orange-red-brown.
But soon tumbling down
She wanes,
As Winter winds blow
To end her grand show
And...

MetamorphosisYour transition is a miracle
A Divine orchestrated Oracle
Like the ever-changing caterpillar
Metamorphosed into a butterfly
Graceful and Beautiful
Bright and Colourful
Gracefully transforming its body
Spinning itself like a silky cocoon
For a season, it goes through pain
To renew the...

Metamorphosis“blessings from above
transformed lust to love
delusion to illumination
earth-heaven bilocation” - Unseeking Seeker
When rays of saffron atonement
streak through the indigo skies,
a glitter of dawn begins
to break over the harsh steel night,
and scents of strawberries ...

MetamorphosisLine of inquiry:
blessings from above
transformed lust to love
delusion to illumination
earth-heaven bilocation
When darkness consumes my lost mind,
I turn to blessings from the blind.
To escape ego's flame of lust,
tones of zen my soul yearns to find.
Before my heart fades into rust,
I turn to spirits I can trust.

Dali Metamorphosis of NarcissusCollaboration with David Kavanagh
Regret fuses form which echoes perception
Handcuff to water as sought submerged reflection
Anti duplicitous from own point of view
Rejection offends but that says more about you
Transformation on edge, background statuesque
Self absorbed in pool, bilocation grotesque
Feet disappear, as sacrificial bait
The real catch lies...

Metamorphosis
Like chrysalises or cocoons,
Each day we grow plumper,
not as insects feeding on leaves,
but as humans
consuming the totality
of lessons learned from our life experiences,
for life is our chrysalises stage
in which we glean interests -
those things which feed
our soul.
From both the good and the bad,
we learn...

MetamorphosisClouds coat the dreary night sky
A cleansing rain befalls me , as if to bring forth a new era
A cure to that which has plagued me, has all but swallowed me entirely
A wretched soul crying out for mercy, for an end
For a beginning
The cool...

MetamorphosisA tadpole's journey, humble and small,
In still waters, it begins to crawl,
With gills that breathe beneath the surface,
It longs for metamorphosis, a destined purpose.
The tadpole morphs, with limbs that sprout,
A froglet now, to the water’s edge...

The Dilettante Diaries: the Incubation and Metamorphosis of Ulysses
This is a story about a Butterfly
She escaped the Boilermaker
Through transformation.
To transform required a period of incubation,
a need to sleep to dream and
the freedom of quiet self-contemplation -
of course, such a transformation
required immense courage and determination
to believe she could fly...

MetamorphosisInspired by the comments of my friend John Rhinem :
Once broken and battered, love's never the same
It is what it is, there's no one to blame
In every life, there comes some pain
The task to grow and love again
Climbing into a shell of self pity and...
