Are Caterpillars safe when they are in their Cocoon?

Is a child really safe in their parents home?

Where can you be really safe ?

Before a caterpillar can turn into a butterfly

It must be kept safe in its Cocoon.

Before a child can grow into an adult

The child must be kept safe in its environment.

A caterpillar must have all its nourishment

In its cocoon before it become a butterfly

A child must have a nourishing environment

In order to become a well rounded adult.

Our environment play a big part in

Our healthy development.

Do you agree or disagree?

Things still fall through cracks

In life , we must stay resilient

Like a caterpillar .

Our environment is our cushion of life

Our mind is our cushion of life

Which is it really ?

Thoughts to pounder on.

My cushion on life

has always been God .

What’s yours May I asked ?

    Serious words to ponder here. God is forgotten until trouble comes, we shout "Oh God" without a thought. Less belief, more strife. Down the rabbit hole we go. I feel your words.
