She is a symbol of stillness…
A reminder for us to be quiet, calm, mindful.

She choses to be seen…
Looking, pausing, contemplating.

Perhaps she holds supernatural powers,
As believed by the Ancient Greeks.

Maybe she is energy and inspiration…
And a sign of change.

With a name that means “seer” and “prophet”,
She could be a guide for those who are lost.

She is a symbol of stillness…

She’s a reminder to pause, to meditate, to contemplate.
She’s a reminder that patience and grace go together.
She’s a reminder to be mindful and still.

Celebrate the praying mantis…
Be still…
And just be.
