Ensconced in a cocoon
watching the world go by
a world changing for the better
the bruises slowly healing
a time to reflect, think and act.
A lesson learnt
to restrain ourselves,
spaces marked
never to be crossed over.
A lesson learnt
to realise our mistakes
to share the world selflessly
with all the other creatures
to live in harmony
to live and let live.
The losses, the trials
making us stronger.
Walking over new pathways
footsteps never faltering
embracing the changes;
Seeds of hope and kindness
sprouting in the mind\'s garden;
ready to emerge from the cocoon
like a beautiful butterfly
To live and let live!
