New Creation

Metamorphosis,
like a snake casting off
an old skin, a crab
an outgrown shell,
or maybe more akin
to a caterpillar
reborn as a regal
butterfly with
panes of luminous color

We are a new creation
in Christ, new and clean
everything old has passed away
we have risen, death to sin
within the loving reconciliation
with our living Savior,
our loving creator God
