flight of the butterfly, rising free
blessed by the giver
of life, love, and hope
gratefully walking
through warm days and cold
warm love prepared
i brewed a cup of it
drank it down deep
it warmed me, filled me
follow the path of the wise brown bear
learn the lessons through painful despair
comes a time to make a choice
for a moment, all hearts rejoice
a new bear cub has joined the way
sacred moment chosen that day
thinks for a time he'll be alone
fiery sacrificial seed now sown
but as the newness of day grows dim
butterflies and fairies and angels greet him
spirit leaps in joyful love
not alone, the new bear cub
jubilant glee flows from his smile
dancing on, mile after mile
greeting others with holy kiss
flooding souls with endless bliss
