Chrysalis



Somehow, out of nothing,
a caterpillar makes his chrysalis.
Softest blue-green,
like translucent jade,
or still, deep waters.
Rimmed with golden dots,
sparkling and twinkling in the light,
a sweet beautiful jewel of promise.
A sweet beautiful jewel of death
with the promise of a life unthought of.
How do they do it?
Make this chrysalis, die,
and yet come back to life?
Who knows? Not I.
The butterfly emerges,
well-named monarch.
A glowing, living, orange
traced with velvet black.
A flying, dancing bit
of living stained glass.
Like an old cathedral window
left it’s perch and flew
into the deepest blue forever skies.
