Brown Is the Butterfly

"Brown is the Butterfly" is a personal reflection of Christine's journey through love. Through poetry and song, she shares her insights about love's trials and tribulations in a story of a poetess who befriends a musician. It is a friendship that blossoms into love which tries and questions destinies, for the musician is already committed. He must choose not only between two women but also on a dream to pursue his career in music. A line is drawn in the sand as he is caught in a torrid affair.It is through the poetess and her voice we take this journey as she begins to understand his silence to her is his contemplation on choice. We ride her waves day-to-day, moment-to-moment as he comes and goes from her life. It is not just a reflection on romantic love or adultery, but a promise of hope in love through spirituality and motherhood.Even in love's darkest hour, hope and faith remain pushing towards a new sunrise. The poetess in Christine Redman-Waldeyer's tale, through her inner strength and faith, undergoes a metamorphosis. The essence of her love opened a door to creativity. It is in this rebirth of spirit that the poetess forms new wings, and "Brown is the Butterfly" takes flight.--Melissa A.
