The chrysalis opens that once was a hiding place,
safe and protected.
where beauty and desire stayed locked in darkness,
waiting.
Color longing to burst into air,
and offer itself to the universe.
Struggling to be free from the womb, whose time has past,
uncertain of a birthing,
nature runs its course with painstaking effort and
brilliance appears like a finished canvas after years of labor.
Creative and free,
wild and deep,
light and at home,
Fly!
The Unmaking
