Poetry Sunday: Bronwyn Lovell

Caterpillar

from Chrysalis: Butterfly Poems

You know you are not all
that you might be but
you must still see
all that you are
right
now.

For
if you
can not see
all that you are
for all that you might be
you will never be
all that
you
are

and
no matter
how lovely
all you intend to be
might be, stay mindful
of what you are
being
right
now

for
right
now
is the
only time
you can ever really be.
