Did you ever wonder
Why the caterpillar
Was blessed
To be a butterfly
And not the rest
Did the Earth Mother
Love that worm best?

Celestial Beings
Gathering
Wayward spirits
Wicked dreams
High tides
Unpredictable
Waves
Yet our Spirits
Refuse to stay
In some earthen
Terrestrial grave

Perhaps that's why
We walk on
The earth this way
...
