About the Author

Dedication

In loving memory of my beloved mother and father who are no longer here with us in the physical realm on planet earth but are now my guardian angels, watching over me—over us—from the heavens above.

Always and forever in my heart, with all my LOVE, your daughter.

Butterflies

Symbolic of hope is the butterfly

Beautiful as can be

It flies by

Not a care in the world

It is free

Wonders not the question of

To be or not to be

The butterfly is

The epitome of beauty

Although once the

Ugly duckling

Disguised as a caterpillar in its cocoon

The butterfly breaks free

And not a moment too soon

Its timing is perfectly

Planned and destined

Its calling having been beckoned

Breaking free from

The ugly darkness

Going from

The worst

To the best dressed

Eliciting the desire

Of being caressed

Ultimately

Born blessed

Flying free

Searching for its happy place

Prejudice not an issue

Not with color

Not with race

Free from envy or jealousy

Playing catch me if you can

But ever so subtly

Butterflies are free to fly as we’ve heard

They’re like the bird

Flying freely through life

Without uttering a single word

They just want us to let them be

As they flutter by

Ever so peacefully

Fairy Tales

Should you believe in the enigma of a fairy tale?

Hold your breath for a moment

Don’t exhale

Think about it and mull it over

In your mind

And you may find

You can write your very own

Fairy tale story

Whatever your heart should desire

Is what you should seek to aspire

Whether it is the thrill of the chase

Or the contentment written all over your face

Find your place

Take a stand

You have the power

For it is right in the palm of your hand

Write your very own fairy tale story

Recognize it

Visualize it

Take inventory

Bask in the sunshine

And all its glory

Make sure there is
