Butterfly

How beautiful you are
You are the master
Of transformation
Bringing on a new life
Bringing joy and 
Inspiration to 
Everyone who sees
You fly in the sky
So ethereal and so free
Flying above the 
Trials of life
Teaching us
What it truly means
To transform and 
To emerge
Completely
Different
Completely 
Beautiful
Shedding 
Our whole 
Selves in the
Process of life
Reaching for
Newer heights
Newer joy
Transforming
From moment
To moment
Living for
Physical death
To be reborn
Into the ethereal
Taking flight
On your wings
Of strength
And of hope
Teaching us
What strength
And transformation
Truly looks like
In such a small
And fragile creature
Fly little butterfly
Fly free on the winds
Of change as you 
Fly into the sky
Ever higher and
More free than
You have ever been

That's why I chose my avatar. Butterflies truly are the ultimate symbol of transformation. (as well as the resurrection). and realistically, they are delicate yet quite strong, able to migrate across the country all the way to Central America.
good topic, well stated.
