flight of the butterfly, rising free
our fate's arrival
was destined by God Himself
only He knows how
Opening our hearts
To newness divine
Sprouting, Growing, Flowing
One river, perfect Mind
Touching lives on roads he walked
Caring soul who left his mark
Giving all wherever he went
Bright bold star was heaven sent
Kindness flowed to friends and foes
Anger never showed its face
Embracing gift of life each day
Conscious heart and warming ray
Welcomed now to God’s great home
Angels dance and sing with joy
Though we friends will shed a tear
Michael’s memory will ever be near
