Soul of a Butterfly

Death is no time to sulk and mourn
They have transformed into a butterfly
The soul is just being reborn
This is no time to say goodbye

Life may leave their eyes
But think of the joy a butterfly brings
Their soul is now in a disguise
Life painted on the wings

Flowers reveal the mission
Telling butterflies where to soar
They set out on their expedition
When you see one your not sad anymore

There are butterflies of every color and hue
But there is only one butterfly special to you
