flight of the butterfly, rising free
I woke this morning
And felt a gentle breeze
I woke this morning
And heard a bird’s song
Today I received
A most glorious gift
Freedom from anger
Sealed with a kiss
I climbed to the top of the mountain
and saw a little flag.
It read:
Love is stronger than fear
I swam to the bottom of the ocean
and found a note in a bottle.
It read:
Love is stronger than fear
I flew on the wisps of the wind;
looked down and saw the writing in a cloud.
It read:
Love is stronger than fear
I spoke with a friend who was afraid;
helped her find a tiny piece of hope.
I said:
Love is stronger than fear
And yet,
today,
I am afraid...
So I remind myself again:
Love is stronger than fear
