A caterpillar sheds her skin, to find a butterfly within <br /> <br />An oyster yields tears of pain, to create a pearl so trim <br /> <br />A mother delivers through pain, the joy of life itself <br /> <br />Why should I complain, if I have to bear my cross as well! <br /> <br /> <br />On the path of transformation, a crown of thorns you may have <br /> <br />Pulling yourself through darkness, before seeing the light beyond <br /> <br />You’re tossed about by the oceans’ storm, waves of pain may lash you <br /> <br />Cold, crying wondering why me! But you’ll be warm when the sun comes out! <br /> <br /> <br />The path is lonely and scary, sometimes doubt whirs up a sandstorm <br /> <br />The desert can be merciless, and forgiving, to those who strive on and on <br /> <br />So travel ahead, though your steps may be weary, o traveler <br /> <br />For through this lifetime’s journey, begins the transformation within!<br /><br />Anita Atina<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/transformation-15/
