The Times I Saw God

I saw god in the eyes of a monarch butterfly

By Peter WallPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Have you ever been woken up

by the tickling on your nose

from the feet of a monarch butterfly

saying hey hey hey hey.

The sun has long been shining

and the way of things been happening

and you're still in bed wondering

What's my part, in the story of humanity

What's my place in the family of things

Well what would you do if I told you

it could be whatever you choose it to be.

But when u choose choose wisely,

cause when u die

they gonna hang your picture

in the halls of forever,

and from then on any thought ever thought is gonna have that with them.

So know that what you do lasts forever.

Death ain't no ending
