Butterfly beauty
yellow Swallowtail flitting
among the flowers

Gracing the garden
with beauty God has made you
enchanting the heart

A message Divine
of this souls emerging hope
Butterfly of Grace

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

it is wonderful and awesome that creatures of nature instill in us joy and faith. Just proof the Creator knew His job. Shalom

Wonderful, ellie le jeune!

I've never seen a swallowtail in 'real life' only in books and other forms of media.  Well, maybe I saw one in the Butterfly House in Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo 3 years ago, I can't quite recall.  However, I'm happy for you that you've seen one and have taken the time to really 'see' it and share it with us.

All His creatures are awesome, aren't they?  You have left me with a smile tonight, Ellie.  Thank you!

and of course the butterfly as the bull frog has been born again

from being a worm to being a wonderful thing of awesome beauty that can soar to new heights, as if touched by the miraculous hand of God....amazing   eh?
