Cocoon
24 September, 2003
Author: Pamela O'Brien
A butterfly
Is unspeakably beautiful
Precious & Innocent
After it emerges
From it's cocoon
Often short-lived
It still captures attention
From all who encounter
The spectacle of
Wings spreading
Love, is much like a butterfly
We must be patient
In awaiting the final result
And remember
To appreciate it's beauty
