A caterpillar walks in beauty
through the sunshine and the rain
leaving sweet memories 
to ease away the pain

In time her image changes
and yet her soul remains the same
returning to the heavens
from that in which she came

A butterfly of beauty
dancing upon the reef
softly whispers to me
comforts me in grief

Do not cry for me
together we are one
my love for you shines brighter
than the ever glowing sun

Her beauty, the brightest colors
gentle touch of love
fluttering wings casting light
shining through the clouds above

A caterpillar walked in beauty
a gentle soul was she
alas, she is now a butterfly
yet she'll always be a friend to me
