First Earth Day

An Angel like insect, You called me Butterfly.

Then said open your wings, And learn to fly. You called me Butterfly.

You said, life will be challenging

You said, life will be challenging But I promise you this,

You said, life will be challenging But I promise you this, I’ll be with you each step

You said, life will be challenging But I promise you this, I’ll be with you each step Even when things go amiss

Each person or situation

Each person or situation Negative emotion or event

Each person or situation Negative emotion or event Are trials to make your heart grow

Each person or situation Negative emotion or event Are trials to make your heart grow Cause your soul to ascent

It’s the circumstance that makes a thing Honey, poison, nectar or water It’s how you perceive the world That determines victory or slaughter

You need to master discernment Learn how to differentiate

Between crocodile tears, Genuine need, jealousy and hate

You need to remain open Even when others attack

You need to remain open Even when others attack You need to be understanding Of the soul growth they lack

You need to understand That this is part of your lesson To show love regardless Show true and real compassion.

So trust me little butterfly Spread your wings and fly

I’ll catch you when you’re f a l l i n g I will always be close by

You are my awareness flame

You are my awareness flame I’ll experience this world through you

You are my awareness flame I’ll experience this world through you Relax and breathe and trust me

You are my awareness flame I’ll experience this world through you Relax and breathe and trust me That’s really all you have to do

y y a l w So f a my little b u t t e r f l y

There will be pain a l o n g the way

But there will also be joy and laughter Happiness and play

You are blessed, my little butterfly

That's all that's left to say

It's time for you to be born

Today is your first Earth day.
