LINDA MOORE SHARES DAY OF THE DEAD PHOTOGRAPHS

THE MUSIC LIVES AND DIES
BUTTERFLY OF DEATH
The butterfly is an ancient symbol of both death and resurrection. In both Christian and native American symbolism, butterflies seen at night teach us of our every creature's impending death. Mariposa warns of our mortality but promises rebirth in Spring and the goodness of human effort.

These images, taken on the Day of the Day at Hollywood Forever Cemetery are by Linda Moore, a frequent contributor to this blog.


Proof enduring for
the open heart,
that music never dies,
comes sweetly in its echoes
on wings of butterflies.
