My Butterfly
MY BUTTERFLY
Like blades of woven silk
Her wings white like milk
An angel in disguise
Carrying the burden of life in her eyes
Shelter from my hurricanes
My heart's cocoon when I am in pain.
Sitting on my shoulder tickling my ear
Her mighty winds blow away all my fears.
The world may turn its back on me in disgust
But in her I can always put my full trust.
Her antennae stay tuned to my soul
Her spirit fluttering within me from my head to my toe.
Whenever I feel shaken or stirred
I am calmed by her soft words.
For there's no other place I'd rather be
Than between her wings
Wrapped in unconditional love and honesty.
Before I speak she knows what I'm thinking
Listens to my cries of shame without even blinking.
Never been my judge in a black robe
Forgives me before I do what I haven't been told.
I would walk three thousand miles
Just to hold her hand and see her smile.
Her lullaby takes me up so high
Like a winged diamond in the sky.
Always focused on the dawn's horizon
Blazing faith in God and tomorrow
Hot enough to bake apple pies on.
In her eyes I can do no wrong
No matter how I stray she will never leave me alone.
I am but a caterpillar
In the mirror of my mind's eye.
Heaven is where we will again fly together.
Me and my grandmother.
