Butterfly dreams

blue butterflies dance in my dreams
and touch the heart of true fantasy
they awaken my mind to see
the mystic realms can be revealed

we are shadows of the one true light
living our roles in this play of life
learning each and every day
how to use loving kindness' way

purple butterflies in trees of light
alight on earth for a moment in time
as winged angels stand by in silence
to watch over and gently guide us

and The Holy Mothers love is felt
with a love that's ever present
and the Christ listens
when we pray and reach out

and God abides over this glorious game
to give us the strength
when we call out in the silence
His unspeakable name

butterfly dreams surrender with a smile
and fantasies only last for a while
and then we awaken to Creation and find
our life was just a shadow of God's infinite light
