Description:
"Today the butterfly has flown,--
She was not here to see it fly,--
And sorrowing I wonder why
The empty shell is mine alone.
Perhaps the secret lies in this:
I too had found a chrysalis,
And Death that robbed me of delight
Was but the radiant creature's flight!"
-Mary Emily Bradley
"We all come to a point in life where we need to burst the shell and fly away into the new realm."
