To Exist

 

The Butterfly floats thru life experiencing all of life's beauty

Fluttering from flower to flower drinking in all that life offers

Delicate and aloof to all that is around it

Spreading joy thru the shear beauty of its existing

 

The Spider crawls among the dark spaces of our life

Creating such beauty and intricate designs beyond belief

In the spinning of his deadly webs

Waiting for lunch to come stumbling in

 

Both have lives on the opposite edge of the spectrum

Both draw us in with their beauty

To exist you must live as both entities do

Drawing people in with the beauty of your soul

Never hold back from allowing someone to see your beauty

Whether it is delicate and aloof or intricate and deadly

  Is There Freedom   Every where I turn, I feel as if I am trapped All I want is the actual freedom of choice Our choices always seemed influenced By friends, family, right and wrong As if our destiny is shaped by everything except our choice There are those among us that say we decide our own destiny But do we The way we are brought up, taught, loved, even disciplined All of these and more make us chose a certain direction or path They have all set our moral compasses to a general direction It’s funny because I can look around We are even taking that freedom away from the wild creatures We build and build taking away their habitat Forcing man’s will onto all around us both man and beast We either do it mentally or physically Is there really a free choice left? Or are we all preprogramed To just follow a path Little variations but all in the same general direction Where did freedom go Do we really have a choice anymore?
