evolve,
gentle spirit:
be not afraid of change,
it's essential; this mutable
process
demands we accept challenges,
face our fears and realize
impermanence
is life
Author notes
in no part of the human experience is it written that we, our situations or surroundings will remain the same.
change is the only certainty.

Oh wow this is wonderful. Indeed, change is a simple part of life. The emotion in this was stunning. Simple, but impacting. Well done and congrats on the HM!

This is so true, what a thoughtful poem that flows so well as a butterfly cinquain. A beautiful poem, thank you so much.

Spiritually philosophical
Whether you are an astrologer or not, you have given the essence of astrological philosophy, that evolvement and change is inevitable. In astrology, those born in December are Sagittarian (I am a Saggy too!)...And so are classified as being 'Mutable', which means one is adaptable to change...
There is so much truth to this write and I really enjoyed the read...

Oh yes, I so agree with the sentiments expressed here in this lovely butterfly cinquain and in your author's notes. Wasn't it Henry Ford who said "the only constant thing in life is change"? What you've written here with such eloquence is exactly what I believe in life too.... never be afraid to change (sometimes I wonder if it's only us women who aren't afraid, lol)!
I loved the spiritual quality and depth of this cinquain, my friend. Bravo to you for being a woman of change - and for being the change you want to see in others too.
Much love
~ Nicolette
