Like a Caterpillar

A Sonnet 

Plain, humble yet lovely caterpillar

Unsuspecting, crawling, munching, plumping

Transformation calls the spectacular

Emergence from tight chrysalis dwelling

Wet wings unfold to a new day’s sunrise

Born without wings yet created for flight

I too like a caterpillar, must arise

God’s Love calling out, for deeper insight

His chrysalis of truth like a safe, warm

blanket enfolds.   God’s loving acceptance

surrounding and Inspiring my form

His Love Transforming my hearts appearance

Inspired to Love as He loves, forgive

as I was forgiven. To fly, to Live.
