Butterflies and Angels
Butterflies dance in the sun�s Earthly rays
Merrily gliding on the melodious breeze,
Ethereal colored wings in brilliant display
Hover  beneath  a  cloudless  expanse.
Metamorph  out  of  a  fragile  cocoon
Into  an  elegant  wing-ed  waif,
Ephemeral existence ending all too soon
Before the cycle begins once again.

Angels dance in the Heavenly realm
Happily rejoicing in God�s loving grace,
Adorned in elegant gowns of white
Wrapped in their Downey wings embrace.
Observing all from dominions above
Waiting to welcome inhabitants home,
They feel compassion, empathy and love
Eternal sentinels for the entire world.

Both creatures parallel in countless ways
Fashioned by an inspired, loving hand,
Gentle and graceful in their flawless spirit
Each valuable to the creator�s plan.
